Someone correct me if im wrong, going off my head.
White wire goes to - existing coil wire in dizzy, red goes to + existing coil wire
Should be a orange and a black left-orange is + on new coil and black is -
I am about 99.9% sure this is correct.

MSD BTM p/n 5462 Instructions


Open up the distributor and take notice of the Blue (or Wht/Blu) wire leading from the ICM to the coil. This is the (-) coil lead. Cut it. The 1/2 that goes to the coil is what you connect to the Orange BTM wire. The other 1/2 coming from the ICM is what you connect to the White BTM wire. The Red BTM wire gets connected to the Blk/Yel wire, which is connected to the coil (+) as well as the ICM. You want to splice into this wire though, so as to leave its original connections intact to the coil and ICM.

Just wanted to throw up a pic for a better visual:

It seems there is/might have been some confusion. When people were mentioning having an Orn and Blk left over, it seems they assumed an actual MSD6A or similar ignition box was also already installed. I assumed he did not have one. So there really isn't wrong info given in here...it was for the assumed application that might have made it wrong.
