not a fan of those big tachs mounted in the middle of the dash, i have a 3-3/8 autometer that i wana put on the right side of the speedo, opposite the fuel gauge and i dont wana drill or make any hole on the dash.

mount needs to clamp on the shaft right behind the signal stalk.

will take some pics soon.

I did the hose clamp thing too. It's not an ideal location, so I'm moving my new Autometer Mini Monster 3 3/4" to the radio block off plate when (if) I get the big engine in.
