Default 1969 corvette tachometer

Does Anybody Know A Company That Sells An Electronic Tachometer For A 1969 Corvette. I Have Installed A 454 Create Motor And I Don't Want To Change My Distributer.

Nobody makes them but they can be made. I sent my 72 tach to MikeMercury here on the forum. He converted it over to electronic. It works very smoothly and looks great. He used my tach face with new guts. Took about a week.

They do make a HEI tach drive distributor. I also wonder if you could use a 75-77 tach and put your face on it.
