I'm nearing the final stages of a Buick V6 swap into my 914. I am using an MSD billet distributor and MSD 6200A ignition box. As best I can tell from the Haines wiring diagram, the 914 12 pin harness wire, black wire with purple stripe that normally connects to the negative side of the coil, is the tach signal wire. I am guessing (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) that the black/purple wire would be the one to connect to the MSD box tach output signal connection. Can anyone correct me on this if I am wrong in my guess? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)
Thanks, Don |

Thanks Joe! I'll see how it goes in a couple of days when I hope to fire it up for the first time. I'm waiting on a new steering shaft bearing so I can put the steering column back together after installing a new key switch. The bearing should be here tomorrow.
Sir Andy, That is not encouraging news. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) But then again, it would give me an excuse to go buy one of those big racey looking Auto Meter tachs. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif) |
