I have some really good cases for my LC build but the only problem i can see is that as i want to run a mechanical tacho with cable etc to fit my old LC clocks.
Has anyone machined the cases to accept the gears for the mechanical drive ?

Why... not just make the Electric Tach fit into the LC Clocks container ?
You need only the mechanical bits inserted into an old and likely dead LC tach housing.
No dicking with the engine cases

quite possible his bike / harness doesnt have the wiring for a digital tacho.... unless you are running a zeeltronic ??

It has been so hard to find a good set of cases this is the compromise i'm afraid.
It's all there but blanked off
No zeeltronic and no digi tacho i'm afraid

When you say "it's all there but blanked off", do you mean it looks like normal but the hole is plugged by something? I had a case like that, there was a rubber plop in the hole, (I think the plop was white but may remember wrong) I just pried it out and installed the tacho mechanics.
