Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: Tach question

I can't read the numbers, they are too faded off, the ink simply is 
unreadable. What I did was hold it under halogen lamp at different angles 
looking for any trace of numbers, which I did find, just unsure on several; 
and the marking on top of what it was, six or eight, is long gone. These 
tachometers by the way were made by Thomas Feria Corporation in PA.....that 
is still around. One of AMC's many "suppliers" of items.
