Title: V8 buttstuffog Tachometer
Post by: The Shredder on October 29, 2011, 09:25:00 PM
My resistor modified 4 cylinder tachometer is not very accurate and seems to be slow in responding above 4,000 rpms.  I'd like to buy a true V8 buttstuffog tachometer if anyone has one available.

Thanks!

Sorry to jump in how hard to make my T.C tach work on a carbed v8. And can it be done accurately?
Thanks

cougarman.  Thanks for the picture and scrounging this up.  I may be interested.  But it's a bummer that the SO 5.0 tach only goes to 6,000 rpms.

I'm investigating a few other options, but may be in touch.
