[QUOTE="Cyborg, post: 107064, member: 3426"] So the tach from Caerbont arrived this morning. Not what I would call a close enough match to the Puka speedo. Dial and needle (I assume the same maker) are just fine and they both use the same script for "Smiths", but the slightly larger case combined with the bezel made it different enough that it will likely drive me nuts every time I look at them. The case (metal) on the Caerbont is slightly deeper, but not by a lot and wouldn't likely notice it once installed. Just thought I'd post this here for future reference and I'll reserve the bitching and moaning for my own thread. Although the fellow at CAI mentioned the 82mm when you factor in the diameter of the bezel it adds up enough to make it noticeable. Oddly enough the paperwork that comes with the Caerbont tach refers to it as 80 mm. [/QUOTE]
