One piece cable. You can buy the whole assy so it's just a remove & replace. _________________ 78 Camino SS, 355,built 700r4,3.23

When my v8 tach went out, I found a v6 tach & swapped the guts out of my v8 one. It's worked great for a few years now. _________________ 78 Camino SS, 355,built 700r4,3.23
