I think there is only two wires (there is on mine, anyway). One goes to the dizzy and the red one plugs into the fuse panel in one of the "Ign. Unfused" slots. But I could be wrong.

BOSS, jamie72 is correct on the tach hookup. That is the way I connected mine with the exception I still have a points dizzy.
As an aside, did you ever get a chance to check on the dash pads from your parts Burb and Blazer? Still needing one for my '91 Burb, blue preferred. Thanks
