Has anyone heard of a hood tach option for GN or GNX ??

No such option was offered.

Have you seen such a thing? Note that Kenne Bell had offered a hood (edge) mounted fuel pressure gauge and others have duplicated it.

The only hood tachs I ever saw were on the Firebirds and GTOs in the late 60s... I suppose if you could find one of those you could adapt it to our cars... Although cutting into a nice looking GN or T-Type hood, I would give that type of tach a second thought... They where not that accurate as I remember... Tom G.

Ok,I have not ever known of one either but a guy called me says he has one that came off an 87 with specific factory plug in wiring and some kind of key lock and says Buick on it and claims he has seen one other one on a site that sold for big bucks so I'm gonna call him out on it just to see what it is !!!! Don't believe it !!!

GM Performance Parts sold a Buick labeled tach, but it was not a production item. It was just an AutoMeter 5" with a different face on it.

A factory hood tach was an option for the 1970-1972 GS as well.
