8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
I have a new 8K tach setup. This is all new except my nicest original stock gauges. For those with higher HP motors that can turn more rpm's
 New chrome and black bezel New lens with 8K lettering New inner tin New outer tin New printed circuit New 8K tachometer New Tachometer wiring harness with correct firewall grommet New lightbulbs  Super nice setup that runs 699 plus shipping from LMC Asking 499 picked up 520 shipped including the tach harness. I can substitute a woodgrain bezel for the same price if you prefer that. Please post interest in the thread...not by pm. First to state I'll take it.

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
Interested. Is the tach made for that application or is it a conversion from another vehicle / application? How accurate are they? thanks.

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
This tach is made for 67-72 trucks specifically. From what I've read they are more accurate than the factory tachs were and are.

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
Do you know if the 8k tachs run well off of HEI distributors? I've heard a couple issues about the 5k aftermarket tachs going up in smoke when used with HEI. Not sure if these were isolated incidents.

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
What, no one needs an 8K tach? Everyone is okay with a measly 5K

Re: 8K Tachometer setup for guys with high performance engines!!!
Do you know what all would be required to make it work with a 6.0 from a 2006 silverado? As far as signal conversion modules and such? Also is there any way to do them with white faces with black numbers instead?

I have two factory 5K tachs with white faces I'm getting ready to rebuild some complete setups for.
