Can't remember what pin it is, but I, like many have had to boost the signal for an aftermarket gauge

It is pin 10 on the green connector. Like slocaddy said, you most likely need a pull up resistor. here's a link to it. http://lt1swap.com/lsx_tach.htmIf you're using a factory tach, or a reproduction of one, the easiest way to hook up the resistor is to just put it between the two terminals on the back of the tach.
