i have a new gaffrig tach/hour meter and i was unsure of how to wire it up.
do i just run a lead from the gray wire on eth MSD brain box to the tach? As for the hourmeter side of it taht is no prob. I was just unsur eof how to wire the RPM signal. Gaffig has abtou 6 differnt ways to wire up thier variosu tach and i wasn;t sure which was right for my setup
tbolt4 with a 6m-2 brainbox and no rev limiters (as of yet), with a blaster2 coil.

Puder, When I replaced my tachs w/gaffrigs I had to change the wiring from the coil to the msd box. 1 engine did not work which was traced to a faulty box. Sent the box back to msd, sure 'nuff it was bad. They sold a box to be for $90. brand new.

Puder,you will need an msd tach adapter module. You hook the grey wire to it and the output from the adapter to your tach. The reason for this is because the multi-strike pulse from the msd box cannot be interpreted by the tach correctly.
