IGNITION 1 /*DARK BLUE (+) /*IGNITION SWITCH HARNESS
ACCESSORY/HEATER BLOWER 1 / RED/BLACK (+) / *IGNITION SWITCH HARNESS
ACCESSORY/HEATER BLOWER 2 /*BLACK/ORANGE (+) /*IGNITION SWITCH HARNESS

you can connect your tach wire to an injector wire. all the injectors will have a common colored wire, connect to the other one, doesn't matter which injector. I have been installing starters for years if you have anymore questions just ask.
