I am thinking about putting an exterior hood tach on my 77 dodge and was curious to see if any one here on this forum has seen any vans with tachs. Would love to see some photos of vans with them on.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to see it. One off the reverse scoop hood tachs mounted on top of the dash might look neat.

Unless you are really tall or have a very tal seat, you will never see it. Ditto what has been said. Hose clamp a regular tach to the your steering column and be happy.


Windows- they're what make a van worth owning!

What about mounting a hood mount tach to the top of the dash ? I am thinking about a tach like this one :
