That wire already goes to the stock tacho in the dash cluster so you only need someone to identify it for you under the dash at the firewall connector or on the cluster connector so you can tap into it

I believe you can use PIN A13 (Red terminal block......I think).

The PCM is EXACTLY the same part number on the 94's and 95's so you can verify from a '95 wiring diagram.

We used this PIN to send a tach signal to the dash tach and ABS/ASR computer control unit. Worked fine for us (instead of from the tach filter) when we went to the LTCC system for coil on plug (from LS1) ignition system.
