I just put a 350 carburated in my 89 rs. Is there any way to get the in dash tach to work with the HEI?

On your old stock divorced coil, computer-controlled HEI there is a 2-wire plug that comes from the wiring harness and attaches on the top of the coil. One wire is a large pink wire- attach that to the BATT/12V+ terminal of your earlier-style large cap HEI (that's the power wire from the ignition switch). The other wire is a smaller white wire- attach that to the TACH terminal of your earlier large cap HEI. The stock tach will function properly.
