Also consider Speedy Cables in Wales .... they did a full conversion to a 
modern stepper motor dive in mine ... complete new movement ... even changed 
the lettering to neg earth. You do however need to run a new wire to the 
distributor. Very accurate and will not degrade with time ... no hairspring 
either.

-->I switched to Neg grnd in 1978 making internal changes to tach. Installed 
Pertronix in 2002 and did nothing with the tach. It ran perfectly till 2017 
when started reading erratically. That is when I sent it off to Nisonger who 
rebuilt to work with points OR Pertronix neg grnd. It was just wore out and 
proved to be worth the cost of repair.

Subject: [Healeys] Tach question Listers, A few days ago, on one of the lists, 
there was discussion of a 66 BJ8 electronic tach that was not reading correctly 
after installing a Pertronix ignition setup.  I just installed the Pertronix 
(points conversion) system and coil and now the tach does not read correctly.  
The comments mentioned that tachs had to be rebuilt specifically for the 
pertonics conversion.  Several places that repair/rebuild/calibrate our Smiths 
tachometer with the Pertronix ignition system were recommended.  As I put the 
car away for winter, I would like to get the tach repaired/rebuilt/calibrated.  
I have lost those comments and therefore the links to those repair sources.  
Can anyone refer me to those services?    Thanks as always for the comments and 
wisdom, Fred66 BJ8
