Still using a single coil for spark?  

 

No one is going to know the answer to your question without knowing the particulars of your "standalone".  

 

The 260Z Tach works off the "pulse" that causes the coil to fire (you'll notice that the blue "tach signal" wire is connected to the "-" coil post and the output of the electronic ignition module through an inline resistor in the stock configuration).

You can use this link as a reference. Green is switched positive, black is ground and the red goes to - side of coil with a resistor. I happened to have a resistor from a ZX I just pulled. Now your 260z tach may be different, but you could always source a 280z tach.
