I still have the 305 COMPUTER in it, but when I hit the key, it just clicks and then evrything blows out, but about 5 minutes later my alarm starts goin off and then everything works again, the alarm goes off cause it has power I know that. If I unplug coil it will turn over fine!!!! what the hell is goin on?

Maybe a wire going to the coil is grounded out somewhere, check all your wires and make sure they are in good shape. when you say everything blows you mean it acts like it has no battery right? if so that means that either one of the battery cables is loose, or something is grounded. normally i would say that it is your starter, but since it cranks with the coil disconnected, then i wouldn't think that could be it.
