Rally Pac Question

As far as I understand, the 8000 RPM tach was used on the Hi Po cars and the 6000 RPM tach was used on the "normal" V8s and the I6 cars. Was there ever a time when the 8000 RPM tach was installed on a non Hi Po car? I'm specifically interested in the 66 fastback. Thanks.

I have an original 8k tach in a box somewhere...the way i understand it is the 8k's say FORD on them and went into any HiPo cars. Ther reason for the 8K is that the std 289 red lined around 4800, the 289/271 red lined at 6500 or so. That said, my 65 modified C-code will be running the 8K one i have...maybe.

Heck, they'll all turn 8k. The question is whether or not it'll do it twice.
