If you have a 72 or earlier with the current triggered tach (RVI number on 
the dial) you usually have to alter the pickup so the ignition wire only 
goes through it once instead of twice, i.e. half a turn instead of a full 
turn.  For the later types this entails opening it up, unfortunately.  From 
73 on the voltage triggered types (RVC) are supposed to be immune, so if you 
can get the right size a swap might be easier.
