Default MSD6a QUICK wiring question,HELP please ASAP

I have a msd 6a I am trying to wire the MSD box upto my distributor OK from what I gather I have read the instructions and have done a search you take out the old coil and run the MSD's White wire to the negative source from the old coil then you run the MSD red wire to the positive source from the old coil, I notice the positive source has two wires on it, does that matter? Will I be fine connecting the MSD red wire directly to them? Thanks its a D16a6 if that matters

Tapping either wire will be fine since they are connected and just supply 12 volts positive.

Sorry, I just reread my post and it does seem confusing. What I meant to say is that tapping into either one of the two wires that originally went to the factory coil positive will be fine since they are actually the same wire.
