Has anyone put in other Tachs than the stock one? Over time I was going to re-do my dash layout and if there is another product out there that can be used instead, I'll cha; /html/triumphs/2005-12/msg00286.html (7,399 bytes)

Even if not, your best bet will probably be one of the many aftermarket electronic tachs and a speedo to match. Any speed shop s; /html/triumphs/2005-12/msg00287.html (7,890 bytes)

I did this on my former Lotus Europa. Accurate. Stable. Looks original. I used APT in Bloomington Minnesota. 952-881-709; /html/triumphs/2005-12/msg00288.html (8,182 bytes)

Does the tach cable turn at camshaft speed (2:1) like on the TR2-4 ? Randall == This list supported in part by The Vintage Triumph Register ==; /html/triumphs/2005-12/msg00295.html (7,326 bytes)
