Ben can you expand on how a right angle drive can work with both? I have a C85and a counterclockwise tach.Thanks!Sent from my iPadJack TextorOn Oct 10, 2013, at 12:58 PM, Ben Charvet wrote:> > Its been a few years, but I ordered my tach cable from ACS. I also ordered theright angle drive to simplify installation. The right angle drive enablesyou to use a clockwise or counter-clockwise tachometer. I bought one with a builtin recording hour meter. For oil pressure it would probably be best to usea mechanical gauge, which involves running a simple tube from the engine tothe gauge. I used automotive oil pressure and temp gauges and they don't useany electricity.> > Ben Charvet> NX866BC> 189 hours after the flight this morning> > On 10/10/2013 11:49 AM, Ray Krause wrote:>> >> Does any one have a good tach cable for the A-65, probably about 4' long?
