[AT] Electronic tach for Case?

[Gunnells, Bradley R]

Charlie, are you thinking of DB Electrical? I've gotten some things from them. Got a starter for the Ford 801 and very happy with it a couple years later. Just got one for my little S10 pickup and not so overwhelmed with it. But they've got great prices, quick shipping etc.
