WANTED: 8K tachometer from an L69 TA
Im looking for a good working tachometer from an L69 that reads 8,000 rpm. Im not sure on exact years but I believe its only an 83 or 84. If you have what I need please give me a price shipped to 49202, I can pay by paypal Instant payment.
I may be interested in a complete cluster with the tach, depending on price.

Re: WANTED: 8K tachometer from an L69 TA
I have one that came out of an 83. I don't know if it works or not. I was going to send it to Auto Instruments and get it checked out and replace my LG-4 set up. This cluster has the white numbers and background so you know it is an 83. The 84 had the red background lighting. I would like a 150.00 out of it. PM me if interested. Thanks.

Re: WANTED: 8K tachometer from an L69 TA
isn't 150.00 just a little bit high for a cluster? or is that the whole dash?

I can pull my own tach out and send it in to be refaced and recalibrated to 8K for about that and KNOW that it works AND is accurate. I understand that suckers are born everyday, but Im not one of them.
If anyone ELSE has what I need and is firmly planted on the lithosphere, please let me know. If nothing comes about by February, I'm just gonna have my tach redone.

Re: WANTED: 8K tachometer from an L69 TA
You had better jump on it if you got that good of a deal. I figure less than a 1,000 of those 83 tachs like that were made in 83 or whatever was L-69 production in the T/A, unless the factory made extras. You can get it refaced by Auto Instruments. I have a power bulge hood I am asking 100.00 for that has all the hardware and aircleaner to go with it but they only made tens of thousands of that hood so it is not worth a 500.00 or more like an aluminum hood.
I will be sending a 69 Chevelle guage cluster there but won't be needing a reface but recalibration and just the redline changed. That whole cluster will cost me about $500.00 to get rebuilt not counting a reface that it don't need. It has a temp, oil, amp, fuel and tach in the center. I can buy a reproduction one that looks close for only $250.00 but just want an original one.

I no longer need the tach, I just bought one and it works perfect and was only about $45 shipped.
