A common remedy for this is to have your mechanical tach converted to
electronic. Bob Lang sent out a pointer not too long ago:

If you don't want to do that to your original, good used tach's pop up on ebay
quite regularly.

No issues with size or appearance if you go this route.

List:

I just installed a new 123ignition electronic distributor and so far so
good.  It has switchable advance curves so you don't need to adjust weights
etc.  Easy install and very easy to test and adjust settings.  I will need
to switch my tach to an electronic version and wondered if anyone had a
brand/part number that they know fits in the TR6 dash?  It doesn't have to
look British but it would look cooler if it did.

Thanks in advance,
