Does anyone have a tachometer or clock for a 79 camaro? Mine is stuck at 5000 revs and i am looking to replace it. The clock has never worked, so I thought I would pose the question while i was asking :-)

Silly question but is your clock actually connected up? They have a seperate permanent live feed on the back of the dash. Mine doesnt work for that very reason... :)

Ooh i never thought to check. I have had so many old cars that the clock has worn out, i just assumed....

When I change the tacho i shall poke the clock and see what happens :-) Thanks :-)

Check the wiring on tach too - mine was stuck at about 5k too, because someone cut the cable and connected it to an external gage. i'm just sayin - they coulda just spliced and had 2 tachs, but whatever :) should hopefully fix your issue :)
