Definitely a good move.
I put an oem tach into my car, from self service junkyard.
I wouldn't want to be without one now.
In my car, the tach replaces a large clock that used to be in the instr. cluster (OEM was to have either a clock or a tach in that position). If yours is that way, see what the oem design did to provide a clock for cars with tach, and get that for your car too.

okay... the image of a giant clock where the tach is cracks me up.

that is the one I have in my car. I just used drywall screws to attach it to the pillar. Just a few wires to hook it up so it takes longer to get the wires down the pillar and inside the dash than it does to hook them up.
I just gave that link as an example of the type I have. I am not sure if that is a good price or not.
Most parts stores (autozone, napa, lee, oreily, kragen, farm n fleet, etc) sell them too. cheapo works fine and start around $35. 3-4 wires, batt+, batt-, signal, illumination (optional)
