Default help in wiring MSD ready to run dist with Fireball HI-6 Ign box and PS-91 remote coil

Anybody that ever run this combo ? I need immediate start up to break in new hydraulic flat cam. So I must get it right the first time. Thanks to those that have experience with this combo of parts! Mike

Why not forego the HI-6, use the coil with the module in the distributor, and eliminate that part of the wiring problem?

Dick with the HI-6 sometime AFTER break-in.

Been thinking along those lines. .Except for the PS 91 coil . The tach wire( the one that use to plug into the HEI cap) can go to the neg side of the remote coil, right?

I agree with Shurkey here. I assume you want the HI-6 for multiple sparks and ignition retard since the RTR al;ready has a rev limiter. If you need to get the engine up and going soon, Shurkey offers the best plan. You really won't need the HI-6 features til its ready to drive so I'd go with this plan. FWIW

(Looks like you treed me LOL)
