It seems like there are a lot of features that could be handled by that MSD 6al such as timing and RPM of the ignition. I guess to achieve that we would need to cancel the mechanical and vacuum advance on the distributor.
Is this how you are using this setup, or is the 6al just giving an extra boost on the coil?
After reading your reply, I notice I made a mistake and have edited my posting. I have a MSD 6A installed NOT the MSD 6AL. Sorry Im human.......sex robot part time.
Anyway, the 6A is a direct bolt on devise that doesnt require mods, cuts or vacuum lines disconnected. Just follow the hook up instructions. Even a caveman can do it.
As for the 6AL, well thats more advance beast. Since Im not tracking my car I dont see the point. However, keep in mind that with either units it is HIGHLY recommended you upgrade your plug wires to 8mm SPIRAL CORE wires.
Here's some more info in helping select the right system:
