So i'm about to put in an msd blaster 2 coil into my mustang and I can't figure out where the hell the wires go and which diagram to use because I have a 6a msd box already connected to the stock distributor and coil? Any clue at all how I wire this mo fo. Any help asap would be nice, i'd like to get it done before Dark

There should be a black and orange set of wires coming out of your 6a box, connect the orange one to the positive side of your blaster 2 and the black to the neg side, hook up the wire from the distributor to the coil and it should start up.

take the stock coil out and there is a mounting bracket that MSD makes that your local parts house Advance Auto parts or whoever should have that runs about $6.00 if you click on my car domain page, and enlarge the engine photo you can see the mounting bracket.
