my nightmere (msd)

Ok I worked on it all day. I went and bought a msd digital 6-plus 350 bucks and it wasn't the msd box, because it did the same thing. I can't get power to the coil. I don't understand it. I have the small red wire hooked to the blue 12v wire that goes to the ballast. I have the 12v run to the battery in the trunk and the ground is grounded to a bolt going into the floorboard of the car. The coil wires are correct and so are the dist. I'm positive. I even tried to use a points dist. and it didn't work. I just can't get the thing to spark. The battery has like 12.50 volts but then when I turn the key the voltage drops at the blue wire to the switched 12v. So then I took the small red and just connected it to the constant 12v and it still did the same thing. I replaced all the plugs too. I almost feel like I need to replace the car it's either that or the mechanic.


I'm eager. I'm going to call the msd tech line tomorrow and see if they can help me with it. I'm really stoked about this new ignition though it seems a lot better than the 6a I had before...
