new tach help??
Hey so when I bought my car, the tach wasn't working and I've just been dealing with it since I bought it. The guy I bought it from put in new engine in it and switched to carb, which is nice. So I think I'm gonna be putting in a new Tach soon, and I'm just wondering how the wiring is gonna go? can I just run the wire from the distributor straight to the tach or does it need to go through a fuse first??

Depending how well butchered your carb swap wiring is ,the stock tacho feed to the dash may still be in place so you don't have to run a new wire through the firewall.
Look in the factory harness for a white wire by the coil
