RPM gauge conversion.

Post by hotrod ford »

I have a F600 rpm gauge that is mechanically operated. I would like to have it converted to electric and remember one time on the site that it can be done but don't remember who does it. Can anyone tell me who can do this?

I have used Shannon at Redline for 4 different projects now: http://www.redlinegaugeworks.com/

He is VERY good at what he does, but he is not cheap. Of course, he is used by major restorers and famous people as well (Jay Leno, Chip Foose, etc..) so at least you know his work is good. He will replace all of the guts of your old tach with new electronic guts and wiring for $200. If you need your art redone, he will do that as well, but that is a bit more and the price will depend on whether he has the art already or needs to recreate it. He will re-paint your needle for free through so if your face art is in good shape, you are looking at pretty much a flat $200.

He is local to me, but people ship their gauges to him from all over the world.
