    Default 56 Tach cable

    Does anyone know if a 57 T-bird cable will work in my 56? Length is same-different type of end at the gauge though.

    The distributor end looks like no problem. The drive gear fits ok. The original gauge end looks kind of like a "loop" of spring steel about1/8" thick.
    The replacement is a "solid square bar" type. That's what I'm questioning.
