best replacement coil for v6?

Well here is my question what would be the best coil to use. I've been trying to install a msd box, but I can get the box to properly work. The car will start, run, then just die. And the wiring on my coil is just so f'ed up not after cutting then having to splice everything back.what would you guys recommend? Also I have swapped the box, and tried calling Msd but they never answer even though they are located in the same city as me. Thanks in advance.

I actually had one if those they are good, but almost blew one of them up, when I realized it had swollen up and cracked. But I was thinking one of those universal msd blaster ones so I can wire my msd box up to it. Since I can't find the proper wiring diagrams.
