[Thomas]

So you want a monster tac in front of the stock one? You could just wire in a shift light and use the OEM tac and save a few hundred.

I already have the tach its mounted on the a pillar

Does your truck not have a stock tach?

The rear axle should have a speed sensor for the stock tach, you should be able to wire your Aftermarket tach to the stock speed sensor

Get a auto meter level 1 shift light and mount that to the A pillar. gives rpm display and then program your rpm shift point for the light.
part # Auto Meter 5343

Pic of Greg's setup.

I have the raptor performance shift light hooked to my pillar and worked great for accurate 6900-7k landing shifts on my old cam. Set at 6300rpm for my current setup now. it does not display rpm.

Pic to get an idea of placement.

ok.....your rpm tach sensor is not on the axle, its on or by the distributor, your speedometer sensor is on the tailshaft of the transmission

 

[Thomas]

Its coil on plug no distributor

 

[TheSatinPumpkin]

tap the trigger into #8 or #1 injector.

 

[Thomas]

Ok what floor shifter is that
