I don't trust my tach and my rev light died. Thinking of installing a rev limiter. What do you guys think?

If you have a distributor, just run a simple rev limiting rotor. You don't really need one since typically the high rev stuff that destroys engines are done on downshift and the rev limiter won't save you from that. If you can't trust the tach, you shouldn't trust a shift light either. If you have had the car for some time, I'm betting you can trust yourself to know when to shift without relying on a mechanical devise to tell you.
