Hope you get the bug in the "black EFI" sorted...... I thought I read that you were throwing the Black EFI out and going back to red in the short term??
Regardless of what you run the car looks great and is a credit to you, well done Dave. :D

I'd say your tacho is out, coz I remember a 202 I had wih a Traumatic and 3.55 diff. It was nowhere near 4 grand at 100kph.

i'd say 3000-3500rpm at the most ....

if you have a 205/60/13 tyre with your diff and trimatic at 100kms should be about 3100rpm

i actually had similar problems with my tacho on a 202 with HEI dizzy.... and this is what i used to fix it...

Image

the hardwired version is what i used, what you'd have is the GND and CH1+ wires....

input from negative coil would go to 33k resistor, GND to the same spot you ground the tacho, and CH1+ would be where you'd connect your tacho pulse wire to.

nah pretty much just allows you to dial in the resistance .... i found when i had the tunable version it would basically cut out at one point then 1mm from that point it would be right, but if i went any further it would have the over counting issue ....

plus i also kept bumping the pot so i had to keep setting it so i just changed to the fixed version.
