adding a tach to my non tach 68

[Ieatcamaros]

I can tell you, don't waste your money on that sunpro stuff at Autozone. Spend the extra dough and get an autometer. They come with wiring instructions. Look at the tachs on autometer's site, they have all the dimensions of their tachs. This way you know for sure if it will fit before buying one. Some of the 5" tach use a 3 3/4" (I believe that's what it is) mounting hole.

Great advice, I was looking into those - couldnt figure out why they were so much cheaper - that had me wonder to begin with. I was looking at autometer -ebay has some pretty cheap (cheaper at any rate) autometers.. Im looking into getting a whole set. Speedo, Tach, Oil, Volts, Temp. Do you think those are the correct gauges to get?

While buying stuff like this on eBay will most of the time get you a better deal initially, I would recommend you get your parts through a certified supplier like Jegs or Summit or the like.
I had a problem with an autometer tach, and luckily Summit let me exchange it and they dealt with the warranty stuff.

Most of the time when you buy stuff like that from a "company" on eBay, they are not a certified supplier and the warranty through Autometer is not valid.

Just a suggestion

I have a summit catalog arriving any day now - I'll prob. place my order with them. Yeah, warranty is where it's at with stuff like this.

Just started looking at summit online and a few Q's arose....

Mechanical or Electrical? Could someone explain the difference?

I've got 5 locations to fill..

Speed
Tach
Oil
Water
Fuel

Need the above - but no space for volts... I could always do a pod, but they come in 2's... Any other gauge I should be looking at to fill the space? Or should I leave out volts?
