MSD wiring?

I know how to run them and everything like that cause theres the diagram on the back of the box itself but however what color wires go to what wires? you got a black and an orange from the box going to the coil when the coil has a red and white wire? then you have the red wire that goes to the timing control or something like that? im way confused as to where that goes. I need msd owner help! Thank you
