## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not many choices for a 2 1/8" tach!!!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021*

This is the perfect tach for my low revving International Harvester 392 engine.  I really don't even need 5K, 4K would have been fine.  I do wish the gauge of the wires coming out of the back was a little thicker.  It's probably 20 gauge.  Works awesome and looks great!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Finally a Tach my /6 can use most of!
  

*by W***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2023*

I'd been looking for a 5k 2" tach, this one works perfect.  I was able to match to the rest of my gauges with the included cover, works great.

    Used internals to modify a mechanical tachometer to electric
  

*by L***B on Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2020*

I changed distributors in my 1956 Ford Thunderbird.  The original was gear driven. I used the internals of this tachometer to replace the mechanical with keeping the original tach appearance. Works great. Even the scaling is dead on.
