On the engine side it comes from the bulkhead connector and runs to the negative side of the coil. It is gray, or gray with a black tracer. From looking at a diagram I think it’s #20 but it will likely be the only unaccounted for wire you have.

This is a useful link to save, or remember... the Challenger schematic does not show the tach wire to the bulkhead, but the Cuda does, and its the same.

I think I can get it from that info. The wire was cut for an aftermarket tach. Thanks

Tach wire was missing at the bulkhead. Ran a new one and the tach lit up and works great so I removed the old Dixco off the column
