It has 6 cyl stamped on the back of the tin, not on the tach. Randy

So does anyone know if the I6 and V6 tachs are identical? Reason tells me they would be (both 6cyls driven electrically off distributor). Can anyone confirm?

Re: What trucks came with the 6 CYL, 4000 RPM Tach ?

Sorry to rehash old threads but I am looking for some more info. I recently came across a tach cluster and i am not sure what it is. The bezel is a 67-68 with choke, the lens is a 4k tach lense and the circuit is a part number 6290459-1. Also i can not find a stamp on the tin that says 6 or 8 just the 12v and coil for the posts. What else can i check to find the exact application.

The lens is for a diesel. If it has a mechanical hookup on back like the speedo, it is for a diesel. If it has the electrical plug ins it should be for a gas engine. If the 6 or 8 cyl stamp is faded away, you won't know if it is a 6 or 8 cyl until you hook it up. The tachs were available in all years, so the bezel info doesn't help. They all used the same PC also.
