I just finished installing an MSD 6AL ignition and TFI Blaster coil with the Ford/MSD wiring harness. Anyway, after hooking everything up and starting it up I noticed a little problem that didn't exist before. When I punch the gas pedal it hesitates before revving out. It's like it bogs for just a split second and then revs normal. One problem might be that I grounded the MSD box to the frame and not to the battery negative like suggested. Would that cause this or is it another problem? Any ideas? Thanks!

Did you scrape off paint, so the ground is good?
