5k tach?

Does anyone know where I can get a 4 or 5k 3 3/8 tach that will work on my 92? Also I dont want to have to run a signal convertor. A 5k is preferred. Thanks.

2 5/8 is easy to read most of the time, but when your drag racing might be a little hard to read, the only issue i have with my sport comp is that the lens fogs up just a bit because the lens is so big and the light deosn't heat it up fast enough, the fog goes away fast though.

Alright I found this one, runs off the alternator- How hard would it be to add the connector/ port to the alternator?

I would give isspro a call. Ask for Don W. in tech. He will be able to tell you if they have one that will read the signal. He owns a 92 so he likes to talk trucks.
