Gauge picture

Whats up guys...does anyone have a picture of the stock tach?
I just want to compare mine...my ebay one goes up to 8k and I want to get a reference point of shift points, etc..

I think that's a mod motor tach. Oh wait, I see what you mean - you just need a reference so you can guess what RPM you're really at.

I know someone will chime in - if not I have pics on the other puter I think.

Yeah, I really don't think its off by much because the idle isn't off by a whole lot.
I actually think the EL overlays I bought might have been for 94-98, 150mph but 8k RPM's.

This isn't super zoomed in or anything, but you should be able to get an idea if you do so.

Here's one I took just before I did my SpeedHut white face overlay.

THanks guys,
I'll show you where my 3k is:

At least I'm not spinning as high on the highway as I thought I was. Phew...

I also have a feeling I'm shifting waaaay to high at the track.
Where should I be shifting with a stock car? 52?
What about with an explorer intake? 55?

Thanks
Joe

I have the right gauges if you want to buy them. But they dont have the warning lights or blinkers on them and the ones you have are wrong if you are using the ones from the white gauges.

What the hell? All the pics are wrong! There's a zero at the beginning of the miles. Mine has a one, and almost a two.

Hmmmm, I better get that checked out. What was I thinking when I bought a car with 47k on the clock?

Heh. Yeah, I bought my GT from the original owner in 2004 and it only had 46,000 original miles.

You're darn tootin' I picked it up quick.
