Bill
It actually is a 10 grander
0 -9 and then to 0

I dig it for the authentic time period
The chrome w/brass
And especially. The Real MOROSO DECALS.

$145 Shipped & insured....not to bad

Tom I have an 2-3 old Moroso catalog and they did not have brass ones listed. The original ring around the Moroso tachs was chrome plated.. I think somone removed the chrome and buffed the underlaying brass.

Have never seen a brass ringed one and have sold approx 30-40 of these over the years.

I have to agree with Whitetop. I have, and have had many of, that same tach along with the Stahl and high end Jones. I have never seen a brass/copper ring. The 10K is probably more appropriate for the SBC then a BBC.

I contacted the company that makes the repo Corvette cables and they would make a cable of any length if you supplied the correct Moroso/Jones round ends.
