That will all depend which type of ignition system you have in the motor. If you have point ignition you have to connect onto the side of the coil that connects to the distributor. If you have an HEI system where the coil is inside the distributor cap, then all you have to do is connect the tach wire to the connector right beside the power connection to the distrubutor cap. It actually says tach if you look closely at it. Most of the time this connector is open or unused, but it is a live circuit. Good luck.
