No Tach Connection/TR6???

Again trying to learn about my recently bought '75 TR6. Though my tach
connection attached  to the rear of  Dynamo on my old side curtain
Sprite(mechanical tach), I have read that maybe my TR6 tach should
connect to the bottom side of the distributer??? The tach cord extends
out to the distributor. Only when I go there, there is  no connection to
be found!

Of course, there is an electronic ignition installed with an external
box and I suppose the previous owner either inherited the wrong
distributor,  or maybe the old distributer was switched out to use the
electronic ignition system???

Guess I am asking about the usual tach connection on the TR6, and what
is the specific type/model  of the distributor which would be stock on
the TR6 '75 and ready to connect the tach??  Hopefully, I can locate the
stock model with the tach connection, which would continue to work with
the electronic ignition.

Kind of a drag with no tach!#%!#$   Any comments appreciated.

A Triumph novice, D. Michael
