Fred,
        Smith's price sheet 6/1/67 shows RVI 2401/00A = (BMC) BHA4380  as being
replaced by RVI2401/00B also = BHA4380 look at the paint, probably the only
difference. 
Price in '67  $45.75 new outrite,  22.50 with exchange. Almost $10.00 more
than the RN series of cable- drive tachs.    RV_I_ (eye) = induction
Cheers   Peter
