Crane HI-6 ignition work with factory tach?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Searched the archives and found some info with regard to using a tach adapter with the Hi-6 so that the tach will work. Can anyone confirm that this will work? Can anyone confirm that it doesn't work without an adaptor?

I recently put an L-28 with about 10.2:1 compression ratio in the car and I am experiencing a little bit of misfire at higher RPM's. I am thinking the Euro distributor with points and 30 year old stock coil need to be upgraded and will fix this, but see no reason to spend a bag of money replacing gauges in the process. If that is the case, I'll drop down to the XR-3000 and be done with it.

I have no experience with the Crane Hi-6, but have seen many people post that they have problems with the Tach when using it,until they get the adapter installed.

If you choose not to get an adapter, how about a Pertronix Ignitor in your Euro Dizzy instead of points? Inexpensive, & reliable. Any Hi -Perf coil will help too. Just make sure you get one that matches how you have the car set up (ballast resistor still in the car, or no ballast resistor)
