Question E6K with MSD Question

I need some clarification on this. I am nearing the end of my project and I have 3 MSD 6AL's, a Haltech E6K, and TII ignition coils.

Here is the pic, this forum won't let me embed the pictures in the post.

I was told to bypass the TII ignitors altogether, that with 3MSD's they aren't used.

Can anyone with experience on this clarify for me?

How are the coils wired?

Thanx

I was told that my rx7 coils can't work with the msd box. They told me to get Coils from haltech which is a GM coil and bosch igniters. But that was with the sport compack box i don't know if it is the same as the 6al's.

This might help


IGNITION OUTPUTS
When using three sets of 2nd Gen Lead coils
IGNOUT - Rotor 1
DIGOUT 1 - Rotor 2
DIGOUT 2 - Rotor 3

COILS
TAN (Beige colour) - * 12V+ ignition switched
PINK - Haltech ignition output as above


Note : Use the cars original 12V+ source, not the Haltech

Couple things...

Since your application is pretty extreme, why don't you run some aftermarket MSD coils?&nbsp Blaster SS coils are like $40 from Summit Racing.

Second, I do not recommend running the MSD's like that.&nbsp The heat will travel into the heat sink and then radiate upwards, back into the circuitry.&nbsp Not the best way to mount them unless you can guarantee lots of cool air flow or very short run time (i.e. drag racing only?).
