Electric Tachometers?

[Douglas E Noble <Douglas.E.Noble@parsons.com>]

     To the List,
     
     I checked the e-mail archives and didn't find anything that quite 
     matched my question, so here it is.
     
     A PO of my '69 1600 stroked the engine with an H20 crankshaft and used 
     an H20 distributor with it when rebuilt.  The car runs great, however 
     the original mechanical tachometer is disconnected.  And there in lies 
     the question.
     
     Does anyone have experience with an electric tach that will fit the 
     dash opening size-wise of a high windshield car and work with this 
     kind of set up?  I figured a mechanical tach might be a real pain to 
     get dialed in right.
     
     Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated.  
     
     Thanks in advance.
