The left side have 2 small wire with connector ( you never need)

The right side you have 6 wire:
the heavy red and heavy black is ( to battery directly )
for the other 4 small:
red: to joint ( originally to coil + )
white: to joint negatif originally ( to coil - )
black: plug in your ( coil - )

MSD setup instructions

Go on the MSD website and click on techsupport email and tell them you're setup and they'll make you a wiring diagram for you're type of setup.

I've also been having what I think is ignition problems. One day I just started running like if it was running on one rotor. I checked the spark and I was getting a faint spark on the leading and a decent on the trailing. I just ordered two more SS blasters for the leading so I'll have a total of 4 MSD SS blasters, one for each sparkplug. Later I'll get a DIS 2 for the Leading and Trailing. Hopefully this is the problem. If not I'm stumped.
