Wiring (or re-wiring) my adventure

[flaflier]

It was fun until yesterday, when I wanted to go for a ride. Got the fuel pump hooked up, everything electrical working.. go to start the car, and no spark...
Run through the diagnostics for the box (6), and it sparks just fine, but the vacuum advance pro billet seems to be kaput. Take it apart and I see some rust on the magnetic pickup mountings, but nothing that SHOULD preclude it from firing. Anyway, decided I will make the msd and pro billet spares, and ordered a Pentronix ignitor III distributor and matching coil. So now I get to wait until it's delivered, clean up more wiring... get to open the harness from the passenger side now, as the MSD wiring is all intermingled in with the rest.

Almost convinced myself that since I was taking the dizzy out, I should just take the intake off, and install the cam that I got from Pat / Brent... but sanity smacked me in the head and told me not now!!

Never open a new can of worms until you have re-canned the ones that are currently wiggling on your plate.
