How do you hook up a tachometer to a Chevy 350 with HEI disturbutor?
On the distributor cap there is an extension that juts out toward the driver side. underneath this are two wire terminals. they should be marked on the top of the cap "Tach" and "Batt." A wire with a male spade end crimped onto it fits into the "tach" terminal and provides a signal for your tachometer to use.
