I don't know if anyone is still compiling information on the Tachometer numbers, but here is an input:

From a '73.5 CIS car --
230/41/10 12V/24000 Imp. 4.73

From a '77 --
231/1/1 12V/24000 Imp. 10.77

From a '78 --
231/1/5 12V/21000 Imp. 12.78

With a '79 SC engine transplant into the '73, the '79 CDI box won't drive the '73 tach. I suspected this would probably happen, but thought I verify that it wouldn't work before removing the tach from the dash. I didn't bother to check out the '77 tach to see if it would work, since I had an SC tach available.

As another data point, I can verify that an SC tach will work with the 3.6 liter DME. Or at least it did with the tach in the particular SC I installed the 3.6 engine in.
