I bought this board off ebag and installed it in my tach today since I have the dash out. I specifically bought this one because it says just need a 12V source to calibrate. Anyone do this conversion and have any directions on this? http://www.ebay.com/itm/160944588899?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AITI didn't buy the regular board they sell because you need a running car and a spare Tach handy to calibrate. My car won't be fully together till who knows when!!! I emailed the seller and Greg@RT-Eng.com but no response yet. Thanks Ron

http://rt-eng.com/rte/images/c/ce/M5tachboard_manual.pdfAccording to step 12, you put in the jumper and adjust the calibration pot to read 4,000 RPM. He did not offer this option when I bought mine. Back in the day, you could use a 12 Volt AC filament transformer to calibrate a tach using 60 cycle AC to simulate a running engine. Craig

Craig I really appreciate you providing the link to that. Don't know why I wasn't smart enough to find them on my own. I figured it had something to do with that jumper!! Thanks Ron
