No need for any adapters.
If you figured out how to do the SCI, then the DIS-2 is similar.
The MSD box just goes in between the ignitor and the coils.
DIS-2 has channel1 and channel 2.
Just make sure the input and output are correct for T1 and T2.

Dude, the wires are labeled right in front of you - why are you popping covers off???

Look at the "top" of the coils - one says "T1" and one says "T2".
Now you know the difference between front trailing and rear trailing...

Look at where the wires from the ignitor (base) connect into the coil.
Look at where the terminals are - one says "-", the other says "+".
Now you know which side is negative and which side is positive.

That should be all the information you need to install the DIS-2.

You're not suppose to mess with the tach lead on the trailing coil packs.
I think this is the yellow wire?
If you cut this wire, you get no tach signal.
