Pic Request (5" tach)
Friday, June 24, 2005 11:19 AM
Okay unfortanetly I will need to get an aftermarket tach. (not for rice shows, but because iam getting a lightened fly wheel and the stock tach will not keep up with the revs, that can be a bad thing while i spray) Basically what i want to see where some of you have mounted your tach 5" im assuming. thanks in advance

let me see if i have a pic, i know I do, but it's at home i'll post it this evening. They also make smaller tachs too if you dont want a 5"er.. they're 3" i think.

Believe me I'm going to look for a smaller one, My last resort is a 5" tach, but it will need to match my other gauges or it will look worse. that means I have to go with autometer prolites

I don't know where I could mold it, no room in the front dash cause i got a tv there 3 gauges above the glove box, and i dont want to fiberglass the top dash cause of the crazy glare, so im going to be stuck putting it somewhere by the driverside a pillar dash area.


Oh and no to the airbag, that save my life with the last cavi

I looked around this weekend and didn't find anything smaller then 5" that would match my current gauges. I still have a few more places to go
