Wondering if anyone knows the correct thread size/pitch on the distributor coupler so I can chase mine back out. Thanks!
 
Google "Speedometer Cable Thread Pitch" and I'm sure you'll find the answer. If you cross-threaded the cable on the tach drive by hand you likely didn't damage the threads unless you used a big pair of pliers to force the connection together.
 
Welcome, Trump2016 to CAC. :w Sorry, I can't help you with your question, but it appears Toobroke has given you some direction. Someone else might be along soon to give alternative suggestions as well. You'll find that CAC has a large community of very helpful members. Good luck with your fix.
 
When I connect my tach cable to my HEI I often have to try several times before I get it right. It really helps to use a strong light to help you see what you're doing and it also helps to use a rag to clean off the threads on the distributor and use compressed air to blow out the threads of the cable housing.
