  3. Are we talking Chrysler "Windsor" or Ford Windsor engine?
    I've seen Chrysler (Mopar) tach drive dists on eBay, but not any fords, except for older FE and (MAYbe) 289s. I guess the latter might work. Also, check Accell site (have great parts drawings). Good Luck!

    sorrry meant ford windsor, probably a 302.theres no other way of running a cable tach drive?dont imagine there is,but worth asking..
    when did cable tachs and the****ociated dizzys become old tech?I guess it was probably around the early sixties-right when windsors showed up [​IMG]
