I'm thinking of fitting a Tachometer to my Nova! Can anyone tell me if its going to be a easy job or not, and what would be a reasonable tachometer to buy for it??

to put in your original dials or on your dash?

edit: didnt read it propally. its easy. battery,earth, coil.

any aftermarket tacho will be simple enough to fit, so long as you can use a multi meter it will only take half an hour. Hardest bit will be finding somewhere sensible to put it.

Yeh i guess!

Are all Dashboards a standard size, because as it happens I only currently have Fuel,Gas and Speedometer.

On other dashboards, they have More + a tach.

Are the other Dashboards a different size or are they all standard?

if its a mk1 fit GTE dails, mk2 fit GSI/SR dails or a digi dash.

no, the wires dont match up 100% and your need the tranluder(sp)
theres a few fitting and wire diagrams around so that makes it easier.
