With a little cutting and new lens and wiring, yes. You have to cut out the hole for the tach lens in the black part of the dash, then cut a hole for it to mount in in the outer part of the back as well. Screw it to the plates, wire it, and off you go. I also bought a new tach type printed circuit, but your could get around that with a little more work as well. Jeff.
