Which spade on the ign. coil is for the tach?? 200 1978

I have a 78 242.

I was at the pick your part - saw a 78 GT 242.
Many parts were gone - but can you believe it - the factory tach was still in the cluster.

On my 78 there is no wire in behind the cluster - like on my 87 245.

There are two locations on the ignition coil - one spade terminal has a wire that goes to the condensor on the distributor - the other spade terminal has a wire that heads off into the wiring harness - I suspect to the ignition switch.

QUESTION - which of these terminals is the one that I will connect to the tach?

Thanks in advance.
