Re: 1960 -62 ???

will fit the 60-63. Is out of a large truck with the air pressure guage for air brakes. My cluster had one originally that I swapped for a factory vacuum guage as its more towards my application.

Re: 1960 -62 ???

I am buying it right now. Sratch that he sold it yesterday but he has a lot of GMC and Chevy parts if anyone is in the Portland Oregon area. He is also moving so willing to make good deals. He has a good GMC cab and a good Chevy cab both 65. Great doors as well. Not bad on his prices either.

Re: 1960 -62 ???

Its a nice set up, just hope that the tach works or they get expensive to fix. If the tach is an EB-8, it does not require a box to work. Most of the other models did. Nice find. Are you converting to factory guages or do you already have them?

Re: 1960 -62 ???

Can someone school this dash tach novice? Are these original tachs mechanical drive or electrical? Do these tachs fit all years of dashes (60-66)?

Re: 1960 -62 ???

Thanks. From what I gather, the early, OEM tachs require some sort of accessory box. Do the repros have that box as well? Would be interested to see a repro installation. Also, how do you know where the redline markers should go for your particular engine?

Re: 1960 -62 ???

That's a deal.

Just wish it was for a 64. I would love to find a gauge cluster with real gauges instead of the idiot lights that are in my 64 now.

Re: 1960 -62 ???

Short thread o the original tachs, you can buy the repops that will look and work like the original, spendy but you`ll spend that much on an original to get them to work, Early Classic Enterprises sells repops.

Re: 1960 -62 ???

If its a model EB-8, it will not require a box to work. They were a self contained unit. It will need a filter if being run w/HEI. If its not an EB-8, you will probably need the box to runit. Several places sell the wiring harness's for the tach.

Pretty good deal. The factory tach's are hard to come by. The tach is worth close to the asking price if all is well.
