No idea why the 'hot air' contingent isn't responding.

I take it you have the engine wiring harness? There is a tach lead in it off the ignition module. White wire with a green plastic connector covering a male spade connector, I believe. The 'hot air' owners should be able to chime in to aid in its location.

Our site has some wiring diagrams for the 86-87 cars, but despite periodic pleading over the last 10 years, no one has come forth with similar information for the carbed or 84-85 cars. Anyone have this stuff to contribute? We'd love to put it out there.

sounds like a great project! tach lead would be on drivers fenderwell between the washer resevoir and fire wall in the harness or just after the ign. module under the coils in the harness(been so long, good luck! As for wiring diag. ect I have some but not a complete set, what are you looking for(specifics)?
