I'm almost done with my pre-81 dash conversion to a 81+ dash. One of the last things I have to do is to adjust the 4CYL to read correctly with the 6CYL. Does anyone know where to put what value resistor in order to make this happen? I checked the archives but found scarce information regarding 6-4CYL tach conversions and nothing on 4-6CYL conversions. Right now the tach is reading 1.5 it's true RPM due to the 2 extra CYL's. Any help or advice would be great. Or if anyone has a large 6CYL tach to fit a 81+ dash let me know. I will post some pictures of the dash conversion as soon as I'm done. It will include lots of pictures and instructions on this fun upgrade. Thanks to all in advance.

Sincerely,
