I am redoing the dash in my boat and wish to install a tach. I'd like to have a Chrysler tach and saw several out there but I want the correct one. Preferably a retro looking one with chrome

There is a few on e-bay.
Just put in 20pole tachometer in the e-bay motors.
A couple of used ones and a new.

I have a vintage Airguide Sea Speed speedo that I really hope to use. Any way to use a tach adapter and use an Airguide so they match?

Probably not.
Post a pic of the speedo.
Force/Chrysler used a bunch of different style tachs.
Maybe someone has one to match.
Sent U a PM.

The speedo looks like this.

My boat is a baby blue '67 StarCraft and will have white interior. 4433.jpg

Guy at speedo shop says to take a new 20 pole and put it together with an airguide speedo and a custom printed face and voila got what I want that works. He'd do it for me for $350 :facepalm:

Couldn't figure out how to reply to your reply:)
Mine are the 88 sweep style.
The kind you don't want.

Here is my project. This is why I think keeping the retro look makes sense

That old Merc is gone. It brought enough to pay for the boat and the Force engine

scored a Sierra 20 pole for $35 delivered. It is not an Airguide but at least it is accurate. I may try to fit the guts into an old Airguide speedo.
