Tachometer cable lengths??
I guess I need a new tach cable, while trying to order one I see there are different lengths. I have a 1971 base 350/270hp automatic coupe. They offer a 22 inch and a 40 inch, I think there is a smaller one too, maybe a 7 inch. I suspect I need the 22 inch which seems about right. Just want to make sure before I order it. Also going to get a new drive gear. Can I get just the drive gear or should I get the full kit. Drive gear alone is like $39 full kit is $98...
