Trying to protect my investment here and not blow-up my new motor.

I am looking at the Autometer Auto Gage line of Shift Light Tachs but don't really see a 5" In-Dash that has shift light on it. Maybe I'm over looking it? Will the 5" with pedestal fit in the dash? What are people using? Is there a better route than AutoMeter?

I've also wondered if I just need to try and Rev-Limit my Mallory D. I am running stock ignition and can't really find a module for the Mallory that I have in the car.

Thanks for any/all advise and/or input....

Add a Mallory CDI 6AL (rev limiter model) and you will never look at your tach again and won't need a shift light.

Just my $.02

+1. I gave up the tach many moons ago...did add a big shift light tho......even saw it sometimes. Most uncontrolled over revs happen by mis-selection of gears. No electrics will stop that.
