Frank Fragello is the owner of Tribute Automotive, and good friend of mine. I can tell you this a great addition to your car. I tested a proto type in our 67 and it worked great! It only takes a few hours to install and does not require cutting or changing your original wiring. As a concouse judge it is tough to tell the difference with out looking behind the panel. Marty

Nice looking product.
Marti, do you need to change the alternator harness?

 

[Ruppstang]

All you do is add a wire to coil for tach signal and change the oil pressure sender from a gage type to a light type. This is a much better system than the original where the ignition wire ran through the tach. If the Tach failed your car would not run. You can get them 6K or 8K and even for a 6cil.

I'm not sure I'd be willing to trade an idiot light for my oil pressure to get a tach, but then I don't race anymore (much) so that probably makes a difference. It is a nice looking unit though.

Very nice..seen that in new mustang and fords issue, any word on how much it is. Any picture of how the 68 looks?

And Do you have to find a 67 tach cluster to modify since you will be losing your fuel gauge and alt gauge if you use the tach your showing??????

The website says for a limited time, $675 w/ or w/o redline. Looks nice, but way past my pocket book. Think I'll have my hood tach freshened up.

Supposed to fit into non tach cluster instrument clusters. See the installation instructions.
