msd 6al hooked up

the msd6al works like an igniter fireing the two coils that feed the leading plugs
took a while to work out the issues but i got it to work

i had the same setup a little while back plus another blaster coil on the trailing ignition running through the cap. since then ive dropped the leading direct fire setup and just ran the 6AL through the cap w/ no noticable difference. ide still suggest running the trailing ignition, itll have a smoother idle plus trailing vs no trailing will change the idle speed by a couple hundred rpms

as soon as i finish my turbo project, ill be running a MSD6BTM w/ direct fire again on leading, and use my 6AL for the trailing side through the cap
