    Description

    1969 Pontiac Hood Tach 5500 redline,
    5500 redline was not correct for any 69 Pontiac V8 (correct for 6 cyl.) made however many folks like the higher redline. There are some vendors that state the 5500 redline was used on Ram Air IV but that is incorrect, only 6cyl tachs used 5500 redline.
    This IS the most accurate reproduction Hood Tach on themarket. 1 year warranty, If this tach fails in the first year ship it to me andI will fix it and return it for free. My tachs have over 99% reliability in thelast 5 years. Accurate to within 200 RPM the entire sweep. Will work on pointsor electronic ignition (I have not found an ignition system that this tach willnot work on). Outer shell, front bezel and base are all injection molded andare exact shape and size of the original hood tach inside and out. Glass lensas used in the original, Lighting is LED to reduce heat and improve lighting,Face plate is correct size, shape as original with correct lettering, divisionlines and redline colors. Correct Pointer shape. Correct wire harness groundlug, fuse holder, 3 prong connector ends and wire colors. Comes with mountingtemplate and wiring instructions. Correct face plate color for year ordered.The tach is held together with 4 screws from the base into the shell and thensealed as was the original.
    This IS the best reproduction hood tach made, the mostaccurate to original and the most reliable hood tach on the market.
    There are at least 3 different manufacturers of hood tachsand we will all claim ours is the best reproduction on the market. None of theother vendors selling Hood mounted tachs will talk about correct colorredlines, the colors changed depending on the year of the hood tach. Correctcolor of wires in the harness and correct size ground lug, they changeddepending on the year of the tach. Correct P/N ink stamped on the bottom of thetach. What ignition systems their tach will actually work on. I have all theseanswers because I have been repairing original hood tachs and producingReproduction Hood Tachs for over 30 years. If your tach was ever to fail, whenyou call for help you will be talking to the person who designed it, built it,and who will repair it for you. If you consider that painting the tach to matchyour car could easily cost you as much as buying it. Why purchase one from acompetitor with less than 99% reliability, less than one year warranty, and froma vendor that won?t repair it if something does go wrong and it quits workingyears down the road.
    My tach does not have the incorrect round casting marks onthe front bezel as on some of the other reproductions.
    If you want a custom redline, custom color faceplate,
    4 or 6 cylinder engine application just ask.
    Want a Hood Tach fora manufacturer other than Pontiac and want a custom face plate just ask.
    Custom color lighting no problem.
