Say whhhaaaatttt?????

What you say is mumbo-jumbo.

Either way, you can't do OBD-1 with that OBD-0 ECU. Ask yourself this question: Does the MSD box have a reluctor ring in it with a hall effect switch? (that is a big N-O!) You need to use the stock distributor and don't waste your time with the MSD ignition. You do NOT

dpfi harness with obd1 mpfi wiring
What?

And no, the DPFI td-01 distributor doesn't have a CYP, Cylinder position sensor.
You're going to need a td-02 Mpfi distributor.

People have tried modifying the DPFI dizzy, but it will always throw a code 9...and go into limp mode whenever it decides it wants to.

Also, the stock coil is good for like 400hp....I don't know why you have a MSD external coil. Sell that and make some money.
