Mag Pickup Question

I am in installing an Accel 300+ ignition box into my 68 camaro equipped with an 89 TPI system.

Searching the message boards I've found a wiring diagram on the following thread outlining the install.

https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...accel+ignition

On the diagram it refers to Mag pickup+ and Mag pickup-

Where exactly do I find these wires, underneath the distributor cap? or can I splice into them via the 4 pin distributor connector?

As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

It is on the distributor shaft underneath the poles, the two wires plug into the ignition module. It is more commonly called the Pick-Up Coil.
