Could it be the tach is pooched or because the factory tach is hooked to a HEI which it was when I bought the truck.
I have never heard of anyone having a problem like that running HEI. You should get the same pulse from an HEI coil as you would a point style coil.

If you can find someone with a timing light that reads RPM's, it will be a good reference against your tach. It is possible your tach needs to be calibrated.
