Default tach Q

I was wondering if i can use my old tach that was spliced on some other wires. I have MSD now and have been running with no tach and i really need one. so can i get a connection so i can plug my tach into my msd box? it has 2 wires not counting the power for the light...

yeah they come off and you can buy them without lights or buy one after. auto meter has interchangable parts so its easy to change shift lights or take them off.

Some tachs will work with the MSD box. Just plug it into the tach port and see if it works or not.

anywhere you can find usually. most of the time your going to want to run it with pre ran wires so you dont have to make your own path.
