Nice I have a surplus of reg tacs and this one tach/vac setup. These tachs were punched by a professional dye and press. The bare metal is filed. no sharp edges...

[B]$51 dollars shipped[/B] OBO these do not come up for sale individually very often.

I might go that on the tachs... The tac/vac combos are really scarce and most will not even part with them. Look up the kit prices repop. And tins are not sold individually. You have to buy the whole kit.

thanks! and nice find i dont know where you guys find that stuff lol was that your only vac/tach tin?

Is that a stock tach tin or is that a punched non-tach tin? Not trying to poop on your thread, the tach hole looks a little different in the photo, may just be the photo though. The curves look more rounded and the edge looks cut.

That tin has been punched out. The hole is offset more rounded and you can see bare metal on the back side.

No it is punched.. You can tell by the slots around the outside as well. I thought I put that in original post. will do... The roll is exactly the same though. It was made by a professional dye and press.
