Later Gen 2 models could read upto 199, but I don't think it will since you won't go that high. Earlier Gen 2 digiclusters quit at 99 I think. It is possible to convert the clusters, but you'll need a different VSS and more wiring and the cluster. There's an article on the archives where someone converted their Gen 1 SHO cluster to a Gen 2 Sable cluster.

If you want a tach, why don't you just get an analog Sable or SHO cluster? Also, some higher-end Taurus (SE/LX) might have the Sable's cluster. They've got a tach and the SHO's speedo goes upto 140 MPH.

Found it. Analog to Digital caonversion in a late G1 SHO. Late G1s have basically the same stuff behind the dash as a G2.
