As far as I remember, the only 356 to use an electric tacho was the 356 B/C Carrera & those gauges go for a lot of money these days.
An early 912 tacho (with green figures & chrome bezel) would be similar to your other 356 instruments but they're larger in diameter & would mean that you had to make the hole in your dash bigger to get it to fit.

I got a large 912 one, took the guts out of it and put in in the hollow shell of the old cable 356.........I scanned in the artwork off the old guage and shrunk it to fit the 356 size. the back of the guage looks a little messy but its all there now, if it works
Contact me if you have any 356b coupe parts !!!!
