I bought the heat sink version from the '95 Stang because I wanted to do it like that on my car. But after seeing the diagram.....I said it isn't going to happen. It's not three wires and you're done.


Are you perfectly willing to let 3 wires defeat you? If so...that's sad.
10% rule, Vinnie. You have to be at least 10% smarter than the object you're using. ;)

You can do it my man. We have the utmost confidence. Besides, if you get stuck, you think we're going to let you go it alone?

You can handle it boss. You built that badass car...you can do anything.

O.K., I'll do it. Generally peer pressure doesn't work on me, but I'll let it this time. I'll try to do it next weekend if the weather allows me to be outside to work.

There. Are you happy now ??? !!!! LOL.

Would something like this work for you?

I would've actually bought that if I haven't been chasing this other . I will try to fabricate this harness this Thursday night.

Oh, I forgot to pass on today's news on this matter.....

I stopped by Autozone and picked up the MSD coil. I installed it when I got home (took about 3 minutes) but haven't had a chance to test it out. After 13 hours at work, I just wanted to sit down. Updates on the coil tomorrow and whether it helped or not.

I know what some have stated about the MSD not being any good. Well, I'll find out in the morning on my way to work.

I'm about to find out if they are good or not. if so...GREAT!!! If not, then it's under warranty, and I'll take it back to the one for a replacement or refund.

i can make you up a remote harness kit if you want.
its high time i did one anyway so its no big deal.
Id rather use the same color wire for extending so if you have a spare harness you could sacrafice that would consist of the TFI connector only, that would be idea.
the three pr0ngs on the tfi would simly match the stator colors,, red/grn/black

What would you charge for something like that? Somewhere around here, I've got the one that I saved from my white '88 3.8 car...the one that got toasty in 2006.
