Good Luck with the install.

The stock tach is in fact innacurate AND slow. I know this because I could see the difference when I had my S-AFC, which had a digital tach.
All the same monster tach are silly.
Has anyone considered attempting to replace the stock tachometer mechanism, with a more accurate after market one? I mean inside the guage cluster. I know you'd probably need custom guage faces so the numbers would line up correctly, but I'm sure it could be done?
