Does anyone know the gauge/size needed for the wire that goes from coil to tachometer (white and black one)

Almost anything should do. The ignition system will be under 10 amps all up.

Ok thanks both. Think I’m gonna use either 14 gauge or 16 gauge (awg). I hadn’t seen them cable listings so thanks gazza. Is there anyone who knows the exact size of the wire at all?

18 is plenty and is capable of about 5 amps with 7-24 cores (strands).

AWG. SWG would be fine as it's thicker.
