REVIEWS:

Rated 5 out of 5 by from it fits in a Morgan! I just installed this tach into my 1968 Morgan in place of the original Smiths unit and it's a big improvement. Although it may not be "original", it's modern technology and made in the USA.

Asked by: Techone1
Thank you for your question. The gauge does need to see +12v. As for the size of the gauge I would recommend the following link: https://www.autometer.com/media/dimensions2014.pdf

will this work with a 6-volt positive ground system?

Asked by: leadfoot
Hello, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately our units are only designed to work with a +12v system and not a +6v ground system.

Will this fit in a 3-1/8 tachometer cup?

Asked by: Brett
Hi Brett, thank you so much for contacting us. This particular tachometer will fit in an 3 1/8" gauge cup, though you will need to trim the mounting studs on the back of the unit for a perfect fit. Hope this helps!
