Okay,so I run the green wire on the tach to the negative side of the coil?Call me crazy...But which is the neg side of the coil?What color wire will be connected to it?

Yup, green(negative) wire coming off the coil is the signal source.
For your lighting, look for a blue wire with red tracer under the dash(there's one going to the light just above the wiper switch) that'll hook you into the dash lighting, dimmer and all.
So for my lighting source,I'll be looking for a blue wire with a red stripe?That will illuminate the tach when the markers,headlights,hi-beams,etc. are turned on?

Thanks fellas .
