I want to run my stock Jeep Wrangler tachometer with my Cummins swap. I would like to use the Dakota digital product. I think it would give the best results since it produces a tach signal for a 4 or 8 cylinder motor and I have the Jeep 2.5L 4 cylinder.
I want to use the one that works off of the "w" terminal of an alternator, but alternator (Delco 12SI) doesn't have one. My 12SI needs a rebuild anyway so I was thinking of upgrading to one with the W terminal. Does anyone know of an alternator that would mount on the 4BT and that has this "w" terminal?
If I decide to use the tooth counter sending unit, would I have to drill into my dodge transmission adapter or could I unscrew the little cover plate on the side of the flywheel housing and make a little adapter to count the flywheel teeth from the side vs. right on top? This cover plate is for flywheel inspection I believe. I also think it's for the use of a barring tool to manually turn the motor. Would that location work for the sender?
