I'm sure that nearly anyone on this board could tell me where to find the wiring diagram for using an MSD 6 series box, but does anyone have a diagram handy for using the 8680 and a Chrysler orange box? I just bought the orange from Summit, so I don't want to upgrade to the MSD 6 just yet.

If it helps, it's brand new...I haven't even wired it in yet. The car is a '72 SSP, with a 400 which is currently points.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Must be used with a MSD ignition control.

Well, nuts.

Anyone want to buy an orange box, with wiring...pretty cheap?

I'm going to keep the disti, because I'm pretty sure that the MSD 6 will work with it...or will it?

Thanks to all contributors.

MSD used to make a standalone unit that provided up to 20 degrees of ignition retard, and could be used with just about any factory or after-market ignition, as it did the retard in the wiring to the ignition coil.
I can't remember the part number right now, but I bought one about 1999 and still have it in storage somewhere.
You might ask MSD tech support what the part number was, then search the web for a used one for sale.

There appears to be a way, in the wiring diagram, that the points disti will work with the MSD 6, but I was referring to using the electronic distributor which came with the kit...

I had planned to upgrade the car from points to electronic...but that was before I found the variable timing module. After I found that, I figured to put that in too.

I thought I saw in the diagram a method of hooking directly up to the electronic distributor...but are you saying that it can't be done that way?

I thought I also saw an instruction which said not to hook up the vacuum assist on the disti...now does that make any sense?

PM me with how much you want for the orange box and harness. Tim
