I have a MSD 6AL, blaster 2 coil and a timing control box to put on my 91z28 and need to know how to correctly wire up the new coil in place of the stock one. i have the 2 coil connector. which wires go where for it. I know how the 6al and timing box goes. do i have to cut the 2 factory plugs that use to go on the stock coil and splice new wires into them

 

Get yourself the wiring kit for the 6AL. It's a short harness that lets you simply plug it in to the stock connectors.

 

i have the harness you are talking about but you can only use this if you are cunning the stcok coil or the msd coil that looks just like the stock coil, ihave the coil that loks like a soda bottle. it has a possitive and negitive on it

 

Did you try looking at MSD's website http://www.msdignition.com/ for their instructions?

Bottled, you can use that MSD harness, no matter what coil you're using. The MSD harness is a two-piece, wrapped and taped into a short black piece of wire loom. Yank the plastic wire loom off of the center. You'll see that the two harness connectors have nothing to do with each other!

Take the large connector (with red and white wires from it), and use that to connect the MSD box to the factory harness. Now, take the small black connector, with the black and orange wires, and throw that in your junk pile. Wire your Blaster 2 coil directly from the MSD box's orange and black wires.

That's what I did, and I'm using the Blaster SS coil. I used the MSD harness because if my MSD box ever dies in the middle of nowhere, I can plug the factory coil back in.
