I have an aftermarket rpm gauge and it seems to never go over 3200 it sounds like its gonna explode if i go any higher is this normal for a 1992 302? my 91 broncos 302 would go up to like 4500 fine. This is just idling and i think my gauge might be off or not wired completely right. Another question my cluster doesnt have the stock rpm gauge would a cluster that did just plug right in or would there have to be more wiring added?

Yes its on 8. Should it be different? The directions said it should be opposite the number of cyl you have.
