Factory 5K Tach with Aftermarket Distributor.

I have a 85 Z/28 that I've removed all the ECM and Electronic emission controls. I have a HEI distributor and coil that I just purchased and installed from JEG's (basically a stock GM HEI). Engine starts and runs just fine. with no problems other than a non functional Tach. I don't really want to put in an aftermarket set of gauges, as I"m trying to retain a "stock" look on the interior. Anyone know a good way to get this hooked into the Coil and working again? Tach worked (ok, it was off by about 1000rpm) before the Emissions were deleted.

Thanks

Connect the factory tach wire to the tach terminal on the distributor.
