Let's get this slant turbo project started. 71 Dart

Have you teied jumping the relay and then jumping the starter straight to the battery and seeing what haooens? Basically by passing everything inside the car. Also did you test the msd unit by arcing the wires together while hooked up to the battery?

Forgot to mention, I did give your suggestion a go but no spark. I think the ignition problem with both ignition systems has the same root cause. Fix it for one and it should work for the other.

Thanks!
