i know

im kinda confused by the diagram, i cant figure out the orange and black wires can anyone help me?

If your using MSD you should also be using a MSD coil, which the orange/black connect to. You have also have the option of using your stock coil, those red/white wire hooked up to the exsisting coil, now connect the orange/black back to coil.

ok so if im using the exsisting coil then i hook up all the wires to the coil? what i understand so far is that the red wire hooks into the black/yellow wire and the white wire hooks into the white/blue wire. now the orange and black are my promlem. do i hook the orange into the black/yellow wire as well becasue its positive and the black into the white/blue since its negitive?

No you do not hook up all the wires to the coil. Disconnect the 2 wires going to the coil
Connect wht/blue to MSD white(negative)
Connect blk/ylw to MSD red(positive)
Connect MSD black to negative side of coil(where wht/blue was connected.
Connect MSD orange to positive side of coil(where blk/ylw was connected.

ok thank you ill give it a try today

let me know how it works out
