Post subject:  Tachometer question

Hi,

I bought a tach for my Charger. It says it's calibrated for an eight cylinder, and modifying it will void the warranty.

Will it work with the slant?

Thanks!

Depends on mfg of tach, some are set up for 8 cyl but have instructions on how to set up for 4 or 6 cyl.

If there aren't switches or a wire loop to cut to change the number of cylinders the tachometer will read properly then you need a different tach.

Thanks for the info guys.

I got my tach from chargerspecialties.com. I'll call them on Monday to figure out how I can get it to work. They manufacture them so I hope they can tell me how to modify it, or make me one that will work.

I'm just glad that I realized it might not work before I put the cluster back together! Putting it back in the car and having to pull it again wouldn't have been fun.

Thanks again,

John D

Hi Guys,

Talked to the manufacturer, and he said there is an adjustment on there, but I would need another tach to confirm the new setting.

I mailed it out to him to re-calibrate it. Seemed easier.

Thanks again,

John D
