the tachs only work with the respective engines as well (I'm sure you know this but I guess its worth pointing out).

also as an FYI, HUD tachs and analog tachs are different sizes!

also, sohc gauge clusters don't have check engine lights...

just like stated, the tachs and mph are pretty much the only difference. The Tachs utilize a different voltage to determine rpm so thats why you need to swap them out.

like crad said the dohc redlines around 7k and the sohc redlines around 6500.

Also the rear circuit pad are different color, Green for SOHC and Blue for DOHC.
