6000 rpm tach anyone...

I thought I'd share a little project I've been working on. I like the stock tachometers, but the 5000 rpm limit was a killer with a modern engine. So with a little thinking and tearing apart of a few tachometers this is what I've come up with. A 6000 rpm tachometer that looks very similar to the original. It really just bolts in with no fuss at all. I've gone through a few renditions of the gauge face and I'm still working on that. Its hard to find a font that matches the original. As you can see the titanium white paper really puts to shame the old and faded white markings from the cluster. I need to do something about that.
