Title: 1966 GT350 Tachometer wire harness assembly
Post by: Craner on May 25, 2026, 07:05:57 PM
Looking for sources for a new wiring harness to repair my original tachometer.
(3 wire. Red, Blk, Blu (Blu/Red Stripe)
I could splice the wiring, but I'd prefer to correct and connect it properly.
Any information is appreciated.

Thank you
Fran

I understand that Phil Severance could replace a harness assembly when he serviced the tach. I've heard that he had an apprentice working with him at some point.
If this is correct, does anyone know how to contact him so I can ask about a wiring harness. 

Thank you
Fran

Possibly the tachometer section of the 1966 Mustang Rally Pac from Alloy Metal is something that might work. (1966 Shelby GT350 tachometer)

Any thoughts on that?
Unsure about the wire length.
Wire color is ok.
Protective sleeving(black tubing) can be reused from my original tach.

A viable alternative IMO

Appreciate the response.
Does anyone know the length of the wiring from the back of an original 66 Shelby Tach?
Thank you

6/11 update:
Purchased Alloy Metal PN 65-RPR-LP
(1965-1966 Mustang Rally Pac Repair Cable Assemblies. Tach & Clock)

The 3 wires (use for Shelby GT350 Tach) circled in my previous post are 21 1/2" long. I pulled my instrument cluster and mocked up the cable routing..looks like this length is OK.
The only difference from what I've seen on original wiring is the lamp wiring molded plug end. This is red, typical OEM is black.
