What would be the diff between the HD truck and the T-bird pieces? thanks,
While the truck distributors with tachometer drives seem to be available in at least a couple of different styles, they have all been using iron for the main body material instead of aluminum as used on the Thunderbird distributors. The ebay unit that’s pictured is a one piece design but I’ve come across some taller units that incorporate a two piece design around the points housing.

Since the truck is not going to be strictly stock, look at aftermarket electric tach's that will fit the hole.

Thanks for the suggestion, however using the HD instrument panel with n OE factory air pressure gauge and being able to us the a OE tach is the whole point of this exercise.

The same eBay seller of the distributor has the tach that goes with the distributor up for auction.

See eBay item number 161121147573

The ebay ad shows 292 or 331. I emailed the guy, it's out of a 331. But, found another one
