Nothing works with the Orange Box.
The Orange box is a 5.5-6V system made in China, it will start retarding the timing at about 4800 RPM and by 5200 will have retarded it by 8*, the output will drop to about 16KV to the plugs and it start dropping cylinders.

So the answer it yes it will run the motor but it will not cure the low quality and poor performance of an Orange Box. The OB is so poor we won't even be wasting our time testing it, we've tested that box for years with every coil we can get our hands on and it just doesn't cut it.
