L4 tach question

Post by befarrer »

Does anybody know if the tach for the 84-86 2.5L Fieros are the same as the 87-88 DIS 2.5L's?

The tach is the same but the 84-86 might have a tach filter (its not part of the tach, but connected by the distributor or somewhere else along the wire to the tach).

That is what I thought, but I wanted to check. Since my dads 84 is getting a DIS engine. I changed my gauge cluster from a car with DIS when I did my swap, so it worked fine.

Thanks

A DIS duke in an 84? That doesn't sound like fun.

Let me know if you need any odds and ends, my car had a DIS duke in it and I still have all the junk from it it lying around.

Actually it is getting a 2.0L OHV from a Cavalier, it looks like the same DIS setup as the duke. Engine is better than a duke, more HP, less torque, alot lighter, and stronger.
