Tachometer for my model A

[petew]

Love having a tach .
I’m used to working on performance V8’s from the 60’s ,70’s so after seeing the crank and rods in the A I want to keep those revs down!

I have a tach in my 30 coupe without overdrive but with a burtz.very interesting to see the rpm of shift points and at cruising speed. Because of the stroke the piston speed of a model A is very impressive, comparable to sbc.

That's me too. I don't even intend to try. what did Henry say about systems that are old are not necessarily redundant?
Remind me please.

210 ci. 168 hp. 6400 rpm.

Drove all over LA for 3 days in 104 degree heat and got 18 mpg.
Won class in national hill climb while there also.

Modified can also be very steetable.

Pete, I believe that small tach you featured in post #13 is similar to the 0-3000RPM tach I bought last year on eBay. The maker is Buzztach, not Westach and the one I have is Buzztach Model P3A 6 Volt Model A tachometer designed to be used with Pertronix’s ignition system. I had a late forty's vintage Sun Tach that I replaced with this Buzztach.........What a great little tach!!!!!

Yup. I was sure sorry to see Buzz retire. I used his tachs on several installations.
