Greetings Ford Six Fans,
I'm going to set up a DS II, MSD box and MSD Blaster coil on my Ranchero's 250.
I've reviewed wiring instructions and the MSD box connections appear relatively straightforward:
one wire (+) to battery voltage (I have a terminal block mounted under the battery tray)
one wire (-) to ground (I'll go to the engine block, where battery - is also connected)
one wire (+) to switched ignition voltage (this is the wire previously connected to my now defunct DUI)
two wires to the magnetic pickup inside DS II (connected via the distributor wiring harness)
two wires to a traditional, canister-style MSD Blaster coil
Does the DS II require a distributor gasket?
If having two vacuum advance connections, what do they connect to (ported vacuum)?
Thank you,
Bob
