[6pack] tachometer rebuild

[Foster, Stan]

With OD I see 2500 rpm at 70, without OD 3000 rpm at 70 sounds about right.

[long diatribe re the lack of OD on the bulk of the exported TR6's
suppressed]

Hi all. I am hoping you guys can provide some insight.

I just had my tachometer rebuilt by Nissonger Instruments. They did a real
nice job and it is working much better than before. There is no longer any
bounce and it isn't hanging up and jumping all over the place. My only
question is that it use to register 3,000 RPMs in 4th gear when I was doing 70
MPH. Now it is about 3,600 in 4th gear at that speed. Of course I have always
had my doubts about the accuracy of the speedo as well. I am running 205/70/15
tires. The transmission and rear end are stock. No overdrive. Is this normal?
