MSD Igniton & Coil 1800 1970

I'm about to install an MSD (Multiple Discharge Spark) unit and one of their Blaster coils. I currently have a Pertonix breakerless pick-up in the distributor and remember when I installed it some years back that I had some problems getting the tach to work properly. Anyone got any experience with an MDS 6T and a Blaster 2 Coil. MSD provides a diagram for hooking these things up with my Pertronix, butWill the stock Smith's Tach work off the tach output the 6T provides? Or do I need one of their tach adapters?
