there is no tach pickup, most shift lights have to be set to 1cyl mode and be tapped into the ground side of one of the coil packs

msd pic shown, may vary

I hooked mine up to one of the injector wires I believe.

FYI, if I remember correctly, an MSD Shift light needs a Tach adapter
but the Raptor Shift Light doesn't. .....i.e. Autometer Tach adaptor # 9117

If you are going to race, sit down in your seat and put your helmet on to make sure you can see it when you are at the track.
