Tach Dash in an L6 Truck
Boy - haven't been on the board for a while and now I can't stop.
I have a tach dash and I'd like to put it in my L6 truck for now. The plan is to convert to a 350, but that's down the road a bit. What do I need for the conversion? Different temp sensor? Wiring harness? Thanks.

Re: Tach Dash in an L6 Truck
Is the tach the 6cyl version or v8 stamped on the back....they are two different tachs and if you use the wrong one on the wrong engine you will at minimum be way off on rpm's and at worse fry the tach. Likely you have a tach for 8cyl unless it was factory with the truck as 6cyl tachs are rare....
Also I'm pretty sure the temp and oil senders are different but someone else can hopefully verify that.
