RE: installing tach

Neg side of the coil unless you have an MSD box then it goes to the tach terminal on there.

RE: installing tach

you could always try opening your hood and taking a look to see where all the wire loom is. generally you can cut the electrical tape that holds the loom together, insert the new wire, then re-tape it....
