Default Car troubles Maybe someone can help??? Tach Jumps Won't run well under boost

The last few days the car just doesn't run right. The tach will bounce all over when I rev it high. It does stumble or fart or anything but it just doesn't want to go fast especialy when under boost.


I ordered a new distributor. But for now I changed the cap. Still the same problem. I did notice this black box under the distributor which I think is some sort of pickup had a crack in it. Also I am running MSD ignition and coil. I plan to remove all that junk when I get the new distributor. But I am wondering if there is something else I am missing?

NEW wires plugs battery alternator and batery terminals and cables.

I agree I think thats the problem. New dizzy won't be here for a few more days but Yeah I think replacing all that stuff with a fresh NEw distributor is gonna solve it.


I'd take the MSD off right now but I lost the internal coil to put back in
