im currently building a 86 cutlass with a 85 hot air motor. Im using the turbo wiring harness under the dash. The cutlass has the rally pack gauge cluster with the tach. Can i use the green plug off the coil pack to feed the tach input (ive already switched the back of the tach for 6cyl) or will i need something else?

ive already matched the gauge cluster wires from the cutlass to the regal harness, all thats left is tach
 
The output from the Coil pack is a "square wave" Some tach like a VDO have to be modified to accept it.
 
is the green plug wire at the coil pack the same connection as the white wire in the dash harness? the one that goes to the rpm/boost meter?
 
I think so. It's been a while since I looked at the circuit diagram but I think they call come from the same coil output
