How do I hook up an MSD ignition to a points set up?/


Recommended Posts

Ok I have a MSD HVC 6600 box and HVC Coil with Accel 25-pro 8.8mm wires. I have a 1973 240z with a L28ET swap. I dont know if the distributor is stock on the 280zx motor or a L24? I do think its a stock 280zx dist because it has a condensor on the coil. I am having trouble finding out how to hook up my box. I can find out where to hook every wire up except the white one that leaves the box and hooks to a wire for the dist. I have what looks like a voltage regulator mounted on the passenger side fender with a wire that goes to the coil.

Points: The single White wire of the MSD is for points triggering. It connects to the points/amplifier

output wire of the distributor.

 

 

BUT WHERE IS THE OUTPUT WIRE??? PLEASE HELP THANKS!!

If your distributor has a red and green wire coming out of the unit, its a 280ZX distributor with a magnetic coil pickup. Connect the red wire to the MSD's violet wire, and the green wire to the MSD's green wire for a magnetic pickup setup.
