Re: [T3] T-III tach conversation - compressed


This is nice!  Ive always wanted a place that we can reference the different
Tach options  (T3 or universal) that are out there.
Go ahead and leave my name in it, thats fine.

As for the right tach?  I think that is just a universal VDO...  Black face
with Grey style numbers... thats wrong for a T3 part, the true black face
tach's had matching number style (as was shown recently) and all T3 tachs
(again... with the possible exception of the T34) had needle caps that were
visible... not under the center disc.

The "German original" tach in VWT this month may indeed be German  VDO but I
dont believe it can be called T3 because of the way the needle sits under
the disc and doesnt match the other instruments.  i *Believe* that the one
in VWT (the german original* is also a custom made conversion... but it may
simply be a universal.

Just my thoughts...  Jim Russ and others that were familiar with the
original accessories,  you ever see any that you knew were T3 and had the
needle cap under the center disc??
