Just for fun and possible solution this gentleman wants to put a tach on his VAC. I have asked him if it is 6 or 12 volts. If it is on 6 it would probably make this more difficult. It is an 8 cylinder tach and his engine is a 4. Could a person devise a magnet and pick up on his front pulley to provide the the switching pulses needed? If I am thinking correctly he needs 8 pulses for every two crank revolutions. So a single mag pickup with 4 magnets 90 degrees apart would provide that, is that agreed? What else is required circuit wise to provide a pulse signal like this. I hope FBH44 sees this, he is the one that has fuel injection on his Massey, do I have that right? I am attaching a link to the post I am referring to.
