My '83 6.9 F250 has no tach, and I want one. Don't want to spend very much money, this is just an old beater. Not having a factory tach it does not have a tach sensor either. Ebay has lots of cheap digital tachs like this one:

They require a small magnet to be placed somewhere to read RPMs. Has anybody used something like this, and if so, where did you put the magnet? Would it throw off the balance if I put a tiny magnet on the crank pulley? Is there a better place to put it?
