Well my searching hasn't gotten me much of an answer so to help out a Corvair newbie I wanted to know the following about the LM Monza Dash.
What did the center pod get used for?
Was it a clock?
Was it a tach?
Was it both?
Was that optional?
Can the either be added after the fact?
Is the wiring there?
Thanks in advance.
Mike

Re: LM Monza Dash-Center Pod Options
the factory option was a clock. people have put tachs there - no problem.
either can be added after the fact. youll need to add the wiring. the clock gets a 12v wire. a tach needs 12v & a wire from the coil.

These diagrams and schematics should give you some idea of what is going on "behind the scenes".
The attached extract from the 1965 Corvair Assembly Manual will provide more detail...
