Can anyone ID this tach that's installed in my '67 GTO?
I've had this car since 1981. The tach in the attached picture was installed in it when I bought the car - it's not a factory tach, and it's not recessed like the other pods are. The tach is in the right-most pod - are the others installed correctly? These are the way they were when I purchased the car 33 years ago!
A pic of the car is attached too - original YS engine, silverglaze paint color (the car had been repainted when I got it) and parchment interior. Has A/C (doesn't work), Power drums, Dual Gate automatic. Thanks for any input anyone can provide. Oh, and I'm not sure why the pics are displaying sideways and upside down, they appear to be correct on the computer! Last edited by Longs; 05-02-2014 at 07:05 PM. |

That tach sure looks a lot like an old SST greenline. Did Sun make these for the big Pontiacs? Ditto on the sharp looking '67.

Resurrecting a post on my tach
I dug up this post from 5 years ago when I asked about the tach in my dash. Last year I bought a FAST XR-i ignition conversion module (my car is running the original points distributor). Reading the forums I saw some posts that make me wonder whether this type of tach will work with the conversion. Does anyone have experience with this?
Another question on this tach - as long as I've had the car, with either the parking or headlights on, the tach jumps, reads high, seems to be more volatile. It will even move if I turn on the lights without the engine running. Does that sound like a bad ground? I haven't messed around with it, just thought I could get some input from the experts first! Thanks! |
