So - on the more you do the more you find trail still with the electrics on 1424.
Found the tacho I had was heavily modified to suit the needs of Hollywood so I've sourced a nice replacement for it that is original.
All of the lights etc work nicely now as they should (indicator, lights and high beam) but I haven't connected the blue or blue/black wire to the back of it yet not wanting to let the smoke out if what is in the engine bay isn't suited for it.
I currently have this mess sitting behind the passenger seat and it clearly needs a tidy up - but more importantly I want to be able to hook the tacho up safely to it somehow.
I kind of get the distributer being an MSD Pro Billet 8530 and how the cables work on that - pretty simple being orange and red to the MSD Blaster SS Coil - Black to Ground and grey is for the tach input based on the MSD Installation instructions.
It seems like we need to get a 12V Supply to the MSD Coil which is currently the white wire going to the coil on the left.
But - what is the grey thing between the starter relay and the coil? And do I need it?
Will I need to get a Tach Converter for the tach signal back using the Blue / Black & Blue cables that are existing?
Thoughts oh wise one! Please.
