I have an old Dwell/Tachometer meter and since I have an HEI distributor and no coil I'm wondering what I can connect it to in order to use the tach.

It's the terminal next to where your battery feed is hooked up and uses the same type connector. It should actually say "TACH" on it and is just connected to the negative side of the coil. An HEI has a coil. It sits on or in the cap, not remotely mounted.
