Default Repro Tach

Has anyone got a 64 with the sniper on it? I have the tach Ames sells and I am about to hook it to the brown tach wire on the hyperspark system. I can’t get a consensus from Holley or Ames if that’s gonna work. Thoughts?

Someone might have a '55-'81 with this set-up. No reason to limit it to one model year! LOL....

I think I possibly have that same tach wiring configuration, but with a hood tach. Hyperspark brown wire to the fusible wire, black to a good ground, and the last wire to an ignition on source. Although I'm not aware of the wiring differences , my tachometer is for the 70 GTO.
