80/86 Factory Tachometer Help
 
Well I've decided that I'm gonna put EFI on my 302 in my 85 bronco, and I'm gonna be using the setup from a 89 mustang gt, and I was wondering if anyone knows how or has run the factory tachometer with that set up. Lmk thanks Chris

Hello,

A gauge cluster with a tachometer is plug-and-play. All of the wires and connections already exists in the vehicle and are ready to go. All you have to do is find a gauge cluster with a tachometer and swap it in and you're done. This is also a good time to get a resetable tripometer if you want one. :) Otherwise, you can keep your current miles, etc. by swapping over your current gauges.

Main reason you can't just put a stock tach in your current dash is because the only difference between a tach and non-tach vehicle is the printed circuit board on the back of the cluster, and those are riveted on quite well.

Oh My bronco already came with the tach from the factory, I just wanted to know how hard it would be.
