Installing a factory tach from GMC Pauls

Hopefully it will have arrived by the time I get out of work tonight. I'm pretty pumped up to put it in. Since I ordered it, I've seen that there are wiring harnesses for 67's and 68-72's. What is the difference? I have a 67' and I don't remember telling GMC pauls that I had a 67.
Also, is there anything I should know about hooking it up to my HEI? I read in some street rod wiring diagrams that tach filters are needed to read RPM's off of a tach. Does anyone know anything about that?
Thanks!

The tach conversion isn't year specific. It only uses it's own 2 wire harness. One to the tach terminal on your hei and the other to the fuse panel for power. No need for any kind of an inline filter.

Thanks for the double response! I think I spoke with you this morning after I posted this question. Thanks for the quick shipping and advice.
