MSD help
OK. I am just getting things ready to fire her up. But I have more questions than answers because I suck with electrical. So here we go. First off I installed ammeter gauges in my car which includes a tach and also a volt meter. I followed the MAD electric instructions to get rid of my amp meter and drilled out the two bulkhead and engine harness plug and ran the heravy red and black straight thru into the engine bay as shown. So what I have installed is an MSD ready to run distributor. An MSD 6AL multi spark box and an MSD coil as shown in the pictures. I am now trying to figure out how this all goes together and MSD instructions do not help me with the two (red and black) wires which eliminates the amp meter. My understanding is that these are to become two feed of sorts? My questions are as follows. Am I to assume that the mopar orange box is now not used here? Am I also to assume that the ballast resistor is eliminated? How about the voltage regulator? I have not installed any of those 3 items yet and was wondering what I need? Where should I install them. It appears my wiper motor has a ballast resistor on it? Is that what it is or is that for the wiper motor?
