Tach capacitor rating?
Only one I can find is from Davies Corvette Parts for $40. Looking for the farad, voltage and temp ranting.
Mine is leaking to ground and prevents the ignition from discharging the coil, btw.

It is actually a filter... it knocks the edges off the square signal before it hits the tach....
I have them at 37.00 but if you use the forum sale code you'll get 10 percent off that too..

If you are referring to the 'radio noise suppressor' capacitor (connected between coil terminal and ground), you probably don't need it [unless you still have the original Delco radio].
If you are referring to the 'tach filter' that is in a canister mounted on the intake manifold (connected to the distributor), that filter houses a network of capacitors and resistors inside the case. You can disassemble it to find the component ratings....or purchase a new one for $40.
