isnt there a tach cluster that reads above 5 also? or was that the most rpm? thought i saw another version also.

I think 5 is it for the stock ones. You can use a Camaro tach and they go to 7 grand. Here is a thread on the Camaro install.

I may put it in the ’71 when I get it together.

Looks awesome! My 71 Burb needs this. What did you do to redo the chrome?
Where is the new lens from? Thanks Loc Doc!

Thanks! The new chrome bezel and lens should be available from any '67-'72 parts vendor. I get mine from a parts place that is close to me.

Nice Work! It really freshens up the perspective from the driver's seat.
