    83 tachometer

    Negative battery cable

    Yes only it goes behind the triangle. The wire runs up the frame and attaches on the top bolt. Out of sight out of mind.

When you get back check to see what you actually used AND would have been nice to have had. After 3-4 trips you'll get your pattern...
