[Roadsters] speedo and tach early 67]

I believe the tach and speedo cables are turning with a 10:1 speed
reduction.  So a motor reving at 10,000 RPM, would only be spinning the tach
cable at 1000 RPM's before the motor exploded!

Eddie ,

This is turning very slow when Idling and I doubt you will be just 
sticking your finger on it while racing the engine at the same time .
Common sense dictates ,but I would doubt that if you touched it ,you 
would even get an "Oh that hurt " .
