I'm installing a duraspark ignition on my carbed 351w '93. It is turning over but no spark. I am very new to wiring and this is my first time doing ignition, so plz be kind. From what I hear duraspark is pretty easy to setup, but I'm having trouble. So I've taken some pictures of my setup and hoping someone can help me out...first off here are links to how it should be wired....

I've read you don't absolutely need to use the white wire off the box, nor do you need the "ballast resistor"...

The main question is what wires from the firewall, starter relay and coil connect to, involving the ignition & mainly the red and white wires on the box

The red wire w/ green strip out of firewall is connected to the + coil and to the red wire from the box. I haven't connected anything to the white wire. Also the rest of them are to the distributor and green to the - coil tach side....

On the S terminal on the starter relay I just have the cable to the starter. and a bunch of other ***** on the I terminal...Any help would be awesome, Thanks

So the red wire w/ green strips is 1 of the 3 coming out of this connector..the other two go to oil and temp sensors..That's how it was wired before I got it
