Question MSD 6A box, How the hell to install?

I just got my MSD 6A box in the mail from a member of the board.. I have the msd box and the 96/97 harness. My question is, How the hell do I install this thing? there is so many wires it leaves me like DUH... Any instructions or help would go a long way... The diagram on the bottom of the box does nothing for me.... Please help..

Thank you

I believe that the MSD website has downloadable instructions. May want to check there first.

Ok, I found the link with the instructions....

Questions...

I dont need to use the magnetic pickup or the tach output?

I only need to use the six wires with the harness, two for the battery and the other 4 that plug into the harness, and the harness goes inbtween the coil wire... sound right ?

If I do need to use the tach output.... where does that wire go because on the instructions it doesnt show or say....

thanks

Correct. The harness goes between the coil connector and coil (not ICM).
