    After doing some research on this subject, I've found that any 79-81 special tach will work. The 80/81's may have a little different wiring plug, but you could probably reuse your old plug with a little effort.

      Jeff, I just noticed that Andreas just listed a whole 79 SF cluster>
      "parts summary 15 May 12 -andreas
      andreashweiss "

      You could get the whole thing and then sell off the 160mph speedo to recoup some of your cost.

      Shipping from Canada may be a little bit, but Andreas is fair.

            Jeff, If/When you get it, I'd be interested in the speedo, or the old speedo off yours if you end up swapping out the whole unit.

            My SG speedo only goes to 85 and I know once I get her running, I'll probably be going a little faster than that.
