I am having a bit of trouble wiring in my msd box i have looked at the vfaq and a couple of install threads on here and im very confused. They all talk about only connecting one white wire, i have no idea where the other wires go at all. Im terrible at wiring and i was wondering if there was a simpler guide that gave you a wire by wire where to hook up? or if someone could help me personaly. Ill include a picture of what i have i think i have the tach adapter box too? i just need a little guidance thanks alot!!

Don't use the tach adaptor. I don't have the instructions near me, but its pretty simple. The three wires that go to the coil pack are unhooked. 2 are signal (red and white) one is power (black with white stripe). Those will get hooked to the inputs of the dis2. coil Red to msd green, White to White Red msd to coil black with white. Then the outputs of the msd will goto the coil. Brown/orange MSD to the coil Black/white Brown/white msd to coil white Brown/green msd to coil red. Finally run a wire from the tach output on the msd to the white wire on the power transistor.
