85 is when they start reading from the trans bell housing.

Been there - done that, it is not difficult at all.  Trick is to find a donor 
vehicle that has the RPM sensor mounted on front of engine to pick up the 
signal from a pin in your crank-balancer.  I'm not sure what the break-point is 
but later years have the sensor at the flywheel end.  I bought the whole set-up 
from a fellow parting out an '81 300SD: Sensor with mount and wire to tach. 
amplifier, tach amplfier and mount with wires (cut) to fuse box and tachometer, 
and tach w/ integrated clock.

Only took me a few hours to install the whole works, and I was going slow.  
Pretty much plug-and-play.  All the holes for the mounts were pre-existing, and 
the pin was in my crank-balancer (it is needed for the diagnostic tests that 
call for measuring RPM).
