The motor was already fired up on the dyno broken in and made 8 pulls before going in the car. Also the Battery cables are double 00 gadge. I also am currently charging the Battery today. Plus the MSD is wire as follows, heavy red wire gose to the Battery kill in the trunk right off the Battery.the heavy black wire to chassie ground ,the little red wire is hooked up at switched 12v at the fuse box, the whte and grey are dead ends, the purple and green go to distributor, and orange and black to coil so it is a really simple set up.
