Question cruise control help

Hi all i have an 87 f350 and I want to install an adiovox cruise unit...all is cool except that the instructions want a connection to the neg side of the coil, well we all know there isn't one on this truck. i was wondering where is the tach signal generated and does anyone know if this will work in place of the coil connection?
ANY help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Tach signal is generated by the sensor located in the top front of the engine. It sits just to the right if you are standing in front of the truck. It is mounted in the gear cover and will have two wires attached to it. As far as tapping into it for cruise, I don't know... mine has factory cruise. I am sure someone will answer that part.
