Isspro's tach works great. Real easy hookup to that 4-pin connector. Just read the directions that come with the gauge. Ask Don he'll tell you the easiest way.

Nope. The crank sensor is on both auto an stick. It has no control over the shifting of an auto. It just tells the PCM the truck is running.
