tacho
Re: tacho
Ray - I used an Auto Meter brand electronic tacho on Rebound.... I also have a Vertex magneto. The kit included a 0-7000 rpm tacho and a little black box with wires hanging out of it that hooks up to the magneto. I was never sure that the tacho reading was right but after fitting the mechanical tacho I now think the electronic unit was probably okay. If you want to try it out, just let me know.

Re: tacho
Hi Dave, my magneto is from a ferguson tractor! Apparently it was THE hotup for Vanguards, but no tacho drive!! Hey Bob i will get back to you on that setup of yours, how big is the tacho? I'm guessing 7,000 rpm is going to be plenty. Will it work on a 4 pot? cheers Ray
Re: tacho
Hi Ray,
"Firefly" ran a Vandgard motor and tacho drive ran to the nose of crankshaft. Don't forget we going back to the 50's-60's . Being a 4 banger , i would say in the day they used what they could. More likely a Motorbike cable Tacho and fittings. Don't change the time Walk kept it original, that's the WOW factor.
