Default Re: 6K/8K Tach

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: William</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The 8000 rpm tach was Z/28 only and entered production early February 1969. It was phased in; at the time some cars were built with the 6000/7000 rpm tach. A very few later production Z/28s had an 8000 rpm tach with a 6500 rpm red line.
Mechanical lifter big blocks used the 6000/7000 rpm tach. </div></div>
Thanks for the correction William. It's curious though that both the February 69 and October 70 P&amp;A Catalogs call up the same tach assembly number (6469383) for 'Sp. H/Per (302,396)' applications. So does this suggest that the same assembly number (6469383) was used for both the 6k/7k and 6k/8k tach heads, as there is no apparent change between the Feb 69 and Oct 70 catalog listings?
