tach pickup help

I need help, i went to Dyno my CL65 AMG v12 twin turbo today and 8 mech. later and about an hour of searching no one was able to find a tach pickup. i wasn't able to get a reading or even do the run so i was really kind of upset about it.

Question: Is there any way to get a tach reading off the engine???

you will need to tap one of the wires out of one of the injector harnesses, pull the wire cover back on harness to reveal wiring. You dont need a tach lead to get HP so you will still be able to a reading, if you want TQ as well you will need the tach lead. I do not have any pics.
