Default Re: Dealer Accessory Tach

i was always under the impression that the tachs with the bowtie were for chevys and the tachs with the GM were for Buick or possibly Olds...?? I know I read that somewhere...I believe the tachs with the Chevy are supposedly worth more....just my .02

BTW...I recently posted a pic with the original box of my NOS ´bowtie´ accesory tach on the thread of my 67 Z Trans Am build. But cannot seem to copy it on here. I am arriving home from Brazil tomorrow, and I will check the date on the box...maybe that will lend a clue..??

I am missing the metal bracket from one of these tachs. Can one of you guys please help me out with dimensions so I can fabricate one myself? Thanks, Tony

Tony, these are pictures and dimensions of an NOS one that I have. The black piece is a rubber gasket that would go underneath. Hope this helps... Rich

BTW..that is the same part number as my NOS tach...no date on the box, but the instructions are dated Sept 1966...the tach was apparently available for the 67 model year...

..anyone else heard this about the tachs with the 'GM' being for the Buick or Olds? Does anyone have an NOS 'GM' tach? What do the instructions say? The 'bowtie' instructions have different view for each of the three Chevy applications, Camaro, Chevelle, and full-size. I was wondering what the GM tach instructions say.
