This is the result of me being a Mopar guy, and having two days of "Engineering Computations" class at Mt. Hood Community College. The assignment was to hook up 8 LEDs and do "something cool" using the programming environment. So, I did. The video has the complete explanation. If you want my crappy code (complete with vestigial lines from when I tried and failed to get the button working) you can send me a message and I'll be happy to send it to you.
@Mrwurk2hard I believe you could just have the program monitor the number of cycles and then have it divide that by time in a function or something. I haven't messed with the program in a while, but I think it would be pretty easy to get the Arduino to produce a value for RPM, and then you could write that to a device, perhaps a little tachometer run by a servo or something.

Very interesting design. Great job on the execution. Would it be possible to lead one cylinder to another device (that I can't recall the name of) to gauge the number of times per second it fires? Keep in mind I have little experience in these types of things.
