Default Tach in NBS

I was just curious as to how to wire a tach (autometer) into a NBS truck, being that there isnt a distributor to wire into. Is there something that Autometer sells to help us wire a tach in to our trucks?


Thanks,
Jesse

White wire to PCM, pin #10. not to bad. If I dont have on my 04 I have to get adaptor harness. Still, no problem. Thanks for the help.
A lot easier than I thought.

You'll need to set the tach at the 4 cylinder setting for it to read correctly.

you can tap into the white wire behind the gauge cluster for the tach, run your ignition wire to an ignition fuse on driver side of dash, run your lighting wire to the dimmer switch (find the wire with a test light and move the dim control) to find it, and last a good ground.
