'Mike,

Sending copy of drawing of tach drive assembly. If you have both gears in the housing, all you need is the cable to second tach.

'Thanks to all the replies. I'm confident I can simply install another tach cable and get the job done. Also, thanks to everyone who refrained from calling me stupid for Not figuring this out by myself. Good bunch of people.
