Tap into one of your fuel injectors if you like.

What? Fuel injector wiring for a tach signal? That doesn't seem right, but I nmight be wrong here.

Moss, what exactly are you attempting to do here? Installing a big ol' tach in the car?

Tap the blue wire that leads up to the cluster. All versions are wired for a tach even if the stock cluster didn't have one.

It's not the best way to do it but it won't hurt anything if he can't find a tach wire. All your looking for is that one pulse per rotation.
