    I have a light green wire and a very faded whitish wire that plug into the module inside the distributor. Which is the positive ( you can tell me the negitive and maybe I can figure it out :grin: ?)

    Thanks for any info.

    Doug,
    Green is negative, white is positive. Are you trying to connect an MSD. This will help.

    Thanks Larry,
    Not using MSD. Setup is a follows let me know what you think
    New Accell HiPo module, recurved for 12 initial 34 total @ 2800 RPM (want to match stall on converter) 44 on vacuumn adv.

    MSD external coil converter, Crane Hi-6s box and Crane PS-91 coil.

    Again thanks for the info. Often the simplest info is hardest to find.

    Doug,
    Sounds like it should work fine. Getting rid of the coil in cap is a good idea with the HEI. With the MSD, you can wire the GM HEI magnetic pickup right to the box. Do you even need a module? I would think you could do the same with the Crane Box.

    Larry,
    Will check with Crane. The distributor I got was set up to use without a module. The Crane is being used with stock HEI setup now. Thanks

    Checked with Crane. The HI-6S needs the module.

    Larry, THANKS for posting that above scan, it just saved me a ton of headaches! :bglasses:

    New MSD instructions don't tell which of their harness wires goes to which GM wire inside the HEI distributor. :af:
