VA 8K Rpm Tach Dash - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

VA72C10 · 04-26-2012, 07:55 PM

This is an 8K upgrade Tach setup. Installed using my absolute best stock fuel, speedo, oil pressure, ammeter, and temp gauges. The temp gauge has perfect original coloring. Needles had nice color also but I still painted them to make sure they all matched the new tach needle. The 8K tach is perfect for those running higher performance V8's that run over close to or over 5K RPM's....

New 8K tach
New 8K lens
New bezel
New printed circuit
New inner and outer tins
New bulbs

This is all new other than super nice original gauges...
Note how nice the temp gauge is and the tins are all new other than nice original small tins for the oil/amp and temp/fuel

525 shipped with HEI wiring harness.

New one ready 480 shipped with harness...

I'll consider it if I don't sell the dash over the weekend...depending on how much trade value you would want for the cluster and gauges...

LOL I was thinking the same thing.

VA72c10 I was wondering the same. Would you be interested in a partial trade on my dash that was just restored. I already got the HEI board from you. I didn't know that an 8K tach was an option and would really like one. You can see my cluster on my build thread. Just let me know...

Satin69 · 04-27-2012, 10:39 AM

I didn't know this was even an option! I would have had this done to mine as well.

Good looking out Jonathan, these are very cool.

CC69Rat · 04-27-2012, 10:59 AM

How about a goat and a bucket full of Logan's peanuts? Swap straight across?

MAN ! I'd love to have this for a certain Big Block 68 ..

You actually can't get these with the air pressure option though so I didn't think of mentioning since you need the air gauge...

Oh ok. Thank you for the explanation. I would rather have the air gauge. Excited to see it.

I've been working on other things until I have interest. Would you want it using your speedo and gauges or some I have? Can have it done in a couple days.
