how do you hook up a 2wire tach/dwell meter to a CD ign?

it seems that all tach/dwells only have 2 wires now. The neg is feed comes from the neg side of the coil as opposed to a third wire for the neg side of the battery.

The question is,, how will this work on a CD ignition (that has a dedicated wire for the tach feed and does not have 12volts neg).
