Sun Super Tach

I'm looking for a Sun Super Tach for my 70 roadrunner.Any thoughts or input? would like it to look old school Thanks

Don't buy a repro one, Bosch makes them now, they no longer say Sun on them and apparently work like junk... You can find originals on Ebay though.

Thanks

I agree. I bought a vintage one on ebay for less than $10 shipped. Had to make my own wiring harness for it, but it wasn't a problem. Works great.

I've got a steering column mounted Sun on my 70 Roadrunner too, (even came with a black garter to hide the stainless worm drive clamp) but it has a narrower sweep than what I remember having on my old Boss 302 in the 80s/90s.

What would the "period correct" early / mid seventies Sun tach face look like, 270 degree or narrow sweep?

i used the old green line sun (not to be confused with the stewart warner green line) two piece back in the day. starting in the later '60's sun went to a transistorized one piece, blue line, 270 degree sweep.

For a early 70's car, I would look for the original Sun Super Tach and not the Super Tach II. They were the later and what I consider the cheaper replacements of the original Sun Super Tachs.

didn't the original super tach have a metal case vs a super tach 2 being plastic ?

all of the originals i had used a chrome metal housing.
