it should be a solid black wire thats the power wire,+side of the coil. at least thats whats on my 65gto
and i believe that the tach wire would be hooked to the neg side of the coil. http://gto.1colony.com/ |

Another interesting detail on the '65 factory tach wiring. It connects to the negative post on the coil. You can't miss it. It has a cheap looking in-line plastic fuse holder (like what comes with car stereo installation kits). I thought the in-line fuse was some tacky addition for something, until I found out it was Factory Installed for the tach!

3 amp, a very short glass fuse. The old style fuse.
