Thanks guys, for all the feedback. I ordered a Tiny Tach and asked for the "little EMF filter".
Post #3, gave me confidence to order one. BTW, about 2 years ago I destroyed a cheepe from Amazon in about 2 hours.

Is this what you ordered?

Yes, that looks like it. I was told to ask about the "little EMF filter" when ordering. This came from an old 2006 thread on Tiny Tach. The poster said when talking with Tiny Tach, to tell them it for a Model A Ford. The Model A has an unshielded (meaning electrically Noisy) ignition. I ordered mine via their website and added that information in a comment box. You might want to consider ordering directly from Tiny Tach for this reason.

Tech Support gave me a new p/n to order fro use on a Model A. 1CRXL. We'll see how this works.

Whoa…. time to slow down the A there. Thus the new tach - nice choice.
Turlock time coming for many. Perhaps some of the folks there can provide more impute.
Best of luck .

Pete,
Would like to know where you found the tach with the Ford Model A face on it. I want one!

It's the old "Buzz Tach" made by Buzz Pound, he made them in the 90's using the SunTachs. He hasn't made them in some time, and I think actually passed on.

I have a few, but they have died.

Thanks for the reply on the Buzz Tach. I might just modify the dial on a small tach myself.

Hitman · 01-25-2023, 10:37 PM

I think I have the face image of the tach shown above, I received it from Buzz. It would be scaled to that sun tach.

Also, I could take a pic of the face of my tach and you could photoshop it if that would help.
Only thing is the redline is set at 7200 so you would have to blank that out.
