Subject: Re: DML: Questions: MSD 6A Wiring

In a message dated 99-03-14 12:05:51 EST, you write:

<< Dont go with the 6a spend the extra money and go with the 6al. You
just
plug
 them in too your available wiring harness.
>>

Why would I want the 6AL over the 6A?? The 6A and 6AL both have the same

identical operating specifications. The only difference is that the 6AL
has an
adjustable rev limiter. Why would I need this? I was going to look at
the MSD
6-Offoad box, but it also has the same exact specs as the 6A/6AL have,
except
the 6-Offroad box is 'water and vibration resistant'; but I woldnt get
this
one simply because it is alot more expensive for the 'resistent'
feature. I
never race, just wanted better overall performance of my ignition
system,
since I have just about everything else in my igntion is aftermarket. So
what
does the wiring harness plug into, the coil, the distributor, etc???? I
know I
have to connect it to the battery and ground it, but what else does this
box
get wired to?

You have to hard wire the MSD in. You need a power lead to the battery, a good ground, and then remove the connector from the stock coil. You cut and connect the MSD to those wires. The MSD has 2 other wires to connect back to the coil or aftermarket coil.
