Does anyone know what color wire goes to the coil and where it comes from for a stock 1970 SS 454.
The previous owner put in an aftermarket tach and I want to hook up the stock tach (if it works)
Can't find it on the wiring diagram

its brown and comes out of the wiring harness near the radio power 3 wire feed. you should be able to see it with the dash top off. if you drilled a hole from the coil thru the fire wall that where it would be.

The tach lead is brown and comes directly out of the plug that goes on the back of the gauge cluster. It does not go through the fuse block nor is it wrapped in the rest of the harness.

I found a wire with a grommet on it coming from the top of the dash cluster and it has a grommet on it like it would fit through the firewall, maybe that is it? I have an HEI distribitor, would it work with that?
