I know... I tried that and it doesn't read the signal that the hei puts out. I read on a older thread that there were two different ways that the tachs read. At this moment I have a aftermarket tach on my dash and I'm looking at removing it and actually getting the cluster tach working. I just have the feed wire up in the gutter wrapped up. I know it's hard to see. (See photo)
