Yeah the LX and EX have a factory tach in the cluster for both manual and auto. I kind of figured they made the fab between autos and manuals similar, but hearing it from someone else puts my mind at ease. Beaters, I did plan on pulling the engine, with my primitive tooling, thats the only way I could do it
Im just going to get a loaner car from someone. But right now, Im just trying to get all the parts together. Thanks for the help, Ill update any progress as soon as I can
