Not everyone realizes you don't need high dollar tools to fabricate. Just need to think outside the box. Though not all of us have FMJ's artistic tallent. It really helps when you have a good friend that is a fantastic tig welder. I'm very thankful in that regard.

I doubt it's a magnet problem. Note how close mine is to the speaker. And I'm using an aftermarket dual speaker with a FM converted radio.

If you are working under the dash be sure and do not losen the screw any more than absolutely necessary to slide a forked spade...
One end of my drive shaft is tapered down about 5 inches from one end.
Which end goes towards front of car?

I differ in opinion, your main issue is the needle is erratic while running. Which would point to an ignition compatability problem.
Many tachs point oddly when shut off, and zero out when turned on.
Need more info about the production origins of the tach.
Pretty much wrapped up. Waiting for the rocker shafts which should be here Wednesday. Took the time to clean up the bottom. Not to shabby for 13 years and 1000+ passes.

i would buy new "direct fit" cragars instead of the "uni-lug" style shown.
if you look close the inner [closest to the wheel hub] holes of the wheels, the holes are starting to "wallow out" for whatever reason.
and as an added bonus [in my opinion], the direct fit wheels use the modern factory...
Man, I'll do this Monday and see what happens. I don't see how a ground wire will stop the needle from being pulled by the speaker magnetic but definitely worth a shot! Sounds like we had the same exact issue and that added wire worked for you....I'll keep you posted!
More pics are posted on both Toms' and my own folders at that link now.
Many more to come and we've already had one group of pics identified as coming from the Butler, PA
meet in 1987. Progress!
Anyone else have a clue? Some of these groups of pics we're posting almost certainly are NOT NeHOA...
