5in P/S II Shift Light Tach

The AutoMeter 5-inch Phantom II Shift Light Tachometer (model 7599) is a precision engine monitoring instrument designed for high-performance and racing applications. This electric analog tachometer combines real-time RPM monitoring with an integrated shift light system that alerts drivers when to shift gears, making it essential for optimizing engine performance during track driving, drag racing, and street performance builds.

The gauge features a 10,000 RPM maximum range suitable for naturally aspirated and boosted engines, with an electric stepper-motor movement that delivers smooth, responsive needle action across the dial. The 5-inch diameter face provides excellent visibility from the driver's seat, while the white dial with black markings maintains clarity under various lighting conditions. A pedestal mount allows for flexible dash or steering column installation, adapting to different vehicle configurations. The integrated shift light function activates at user-defined RPM thresholds, providing a critical visual cue that improves shift timing and reduces turbo lag during acceleration.

This tachometer is engineered for enthusiasts and competitive drivers who demand precise engine data. Whether tuning a street performance engine, preparing for road course events, or optimizing shift strategy in drag racing, the shift light function eliminates guesswork and standardizes RPM management across different driving conditions. The Phantom II styling delivers a modern appearance while the quality construction of the instrument ensures long-term reliability under demanding use.

AutoMeter tachometers with shift light capability have become standard equipment in performance shops and racing programs because the shift light function directly correlates to improved consistency and reduced engine wear. This 5-inch model balances gauge size with comprehensive readability, making it a practical choice for both full custom builds and retrofit applications where space is limited.
