i believe that knob just plugs into the msd box to act as a remote control...

im gonna get the modified cap from msd, the btm knob, and a external coil, hope that works.

msd has an ignition set up that comes with the boost timing master knob, its like $350.00 or something like that. its like the 6 series or some ----, go to summitracing.com to the sport compact section, or msd.com or msdignition.com

black is a body ground

orange hookes up to the - side of coil

I found working wit the wires inside the distributor is very very very difficult. Im going to be installing mine off the distributor harness. All those wires in there just go to that harness anyway. Seems much much simpler.
