Default Stock Tach

In the process of assembling my 6000RPM motor (rebuilt, balanced, ported heads, LT1 intake, 847 cam etc.). What would happen if I revved the motor past 6000 on the stock L98 tach? Would anything break?

Probably won't break anything. See if you can find a ZR1 tach for it. I think they drop in and go to 8k like the LT4 tachs do.

It wraps up higher to no number land, that would be approximately 8K and stops there. Don't ask me how I know. but mine does that now. buyin used cluster to fix the problem.
