If you really want a MSD coil buy this and put it in your HEI dist

Then you don't need a new remote coil as well as the #8401 conversion cap you linked

Re: msd time
That is for old hei so you can run an external coil, which your 91 already has.
It will not do anything for you in terms of hooking up an msd box.
When all else fails, go to the companies website, I did the hard part for you,

You need 8876 harness to install the 6a box.
Don't expect a huge gain in performance if your engine is mild.
