Tach reading is off!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I have posted this in the electronics page with no response.

Ok I have a 87 GTA with the digital dash, 350 TPI that had an engine fire. Ok I used a engine harness from a 87 IROC and the headlight harness from a 86 T/A. The problem I have is that when the tach displayes 6000 RPMS it is at 3000 RPMS. I know this because I hooked up a digital timing light that had a tach display on it. The distributor is out of a 87 Monte Carlo SS. Anyideas to what could be causing this? PLEASE HELP!!!!!

That would work but I would like to try to keep the interior looking orginal, But it is looking like I might have to do that, because nobody has any idea what is wrong.
