Go to www.egauges.com. This is the source Formula suggests for the older stuff. Look for the Vanguard series.The bezels come off with a twist counterclockwise.

Thanks for the info Magic. Just checked out the site, looks like they still carry the very tach I need including the square bezel. They don't exactly give them away though!!!!!

Third, at least what you need is still available! That's . A wise man in your "position" would probably be wise to get two. The chances that the movement will fail in the other one in the next season or two are pretty good. I would think the movement in the other tach would fail before any other guage does.

Yeah Rip, I agree on the "get two thing". However, 800 bucks for two tachs is pretty rich. I had no idea they cost like that. Of course, I've never had to but one before.

Now, about replacing a tach,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, do they need to be calibrated to your engine or do you just hook 'em up and they work. Excuse if this is a dumb question but I just don't know
