As I've said before, I have a source for the Tachometer Spiral driven gear.  Because of the way the spiral is made it takes about 1 1/2 to 2 hours just to cut the spiral part of the assembly.  I've got one that was made.  I put it on my car and hooked it to the indicator and ran the engine for 30 minutes and it worked great.  I know $150 sound high but believe me that there is a lot of work involved in machining this gear.  I don't believe there is any profit for him in this.  He's doing it at costs. He can make these on a one order request because he has it in his PC.  You can call me @ 903-268-3129 or email me kvagabond@geusnet.com.

And Bill I don't think that you need a new "RETAINER".  I see that you have you're old apart so you insert the new gear into the case be on with it.  Richard
