I think the first question is why?it floats this guys boat (p plater). my mate has been asked while doing other work on the car to wire the shiftlight/rpm gauge up thats already mounted in the car.
he doesnt ask why..just does what he is getting paid to do

Not entirely sure whether the F6 differs drastically to the general BA, but here is the service manual:
http://pdftown.com/Ford-Falcon-BA-2003-Service-Manual.html
I had a quick look, the PCM has an RPM signal (the PCM is located in the top right of the diagram on page 790). As for which pin on which connector, nfi, don't have that much time to look in to it lol.
Good luck.
