vdo tachs

Post by Russ Pagels »

Hello, the years long rehab of my new B31 seems to be held up by the need of two VDO tach drive system tachs. My builder has exhausted all of his suppliers and has come empty. does any one have a lead on where he can find them. the engines are Cummins 6bta's 250 hp. thanks Russ
