Speedo and dash Q's....
I have an 86 silverado. It has cruise and I want it to work. I have been trying to find a tach dash for this truck but 86 dash w/the optical pick-up for the cruise is hard to find. Can I just find a 81 on tach dash and swap in the 86 speedo? Seems like the logical thing to do? Any input?

Re: Speedo and dash Q's....
Did they make an 81 and later dash with a tach? I mounted a tach from Autometer on my "A" pillar above the instrument panel to solve my tach problem. The mounting uses the screw hole that is already there and a flat aluminum strap cut to fit tight against the windshield rubber gasket to hold it solid. There is one screw that goes through the strap and holds it against the pillar at the mounting hole and then the tach mounts onto the strap just above the dash pad. Thsi all can be removed and the pillar will not be damaged.
