Default 67 Tach Redline discrepancy?

Still learning about these cars and was looking at the Pro Team Corvette web site when I noticed something odd? When looking at the tach redline on a couple of 67 authentic cars (both being 327/350HP 4-speed cars) I noticed the tach redlines differed? Am I missing something or is there a reason for this? Here's the links;

I would say the 350 HP silver coupe has a big block, solid lifter instrument cluster in it - or at least the tach and oil pressure gage. The cluster on the red convertible looks correct.

There silver car has the wrong tach. A lot of things can happen to one of these cars, after 50 years.

Considering that they're at Proteam, the tach's probably not the only thing wrong on the car.
