Steering Column Help
How do you remove and or loosen the steering column. I am replacing my tach with an MSD compatible tach from Nisonger and I can not get the new tach to go into the dash. The steering column interfers about 3/16" to 1/4".

MSD Compatible tach???
All the Superformance Tach's were compatible with MSD ignitions. The early cars only needed a tach adapter to make it work. Just an inline capacitor….
Regarding the fit-up problem, can you just remove the steering wheel?
|
My tach works good hooked up to the MSD AL6 box. IMO it is the most acurate of the Smith gauges.

I've got SPF #258 and the older tachs are not compatible with the MSD type systems according to my personal experience, Dennis Olthoff and the guys at Nisonger and APT. I tried both adapters to no avail.
It's the steering column and the turn signal ring that are giving me a problem. If I could just loosen the column a bit and push it to the right (I have the street version dash) a quarter inch I would be a happy camper.

Are you pulling signal from the "S" or the "+" tap on the tach?

You might want to purchase the wiring diagram that Blas sells. It is probably the best on the market. I had one for each of my superformances. I had 0995 and 2742. I took the msd 6aL out of 0995 and put it in the new one without a hitch.
Good luck with your project........

All good now. Figured out the steering wheel deal and hooked up with Blas. He was very helpful.
