no adapter needed. I forget which wire too hook into but its one behind the dash cluster itself. I put mine in years ago and forget the site I found the info on. Tach adapters are for 99+s. On a MSD window switch they say to hook into the right coil pack and the farthest right wire of the 3 wires for a RPM signal. You could try that just splicing into the 3rd wire. If it doesn't then try researching the net for the wire behind the dash cluster.
