Default dizzying question

So I need a little help. I have been searching for some time (3 weeks) and I am now terribly aware Im a tard when it comes to technology. Please excuse my lack of ability with computers.
I have been slowly collecting parts for my b1. I have full exhaust, coilovers, tie bars, camber set, lca, sri, msd box/coil/wires, iridiums, afpr, clutch/aluminum fly, and poly mounts.
My question is how do I convert to external coil? I have looked..and looked..and looked..and looked.....did I mention that I have looked? I have seen tons of useless crap but no real FACTS or diagram on how this is done. The few that got me thinking had no more pics as the owners had deleted or moved them or the questions were never answered. I have called msd looking for an external conversion cap and rotor...but they cant help me. So im thinking I need to convert to a different model dizzy? Which one? Diagrams? Im very mechanical..the work isnt the problem. The info will be greatly appreciated and put to use immediately. Thank you all in advance.

My first question is "why"?

Next, I can only assume you are working in a 94 Accord? Have you looked at the wire diagrams for these - many swap guides would have the info as well...non vtec to vtec for an OBD-I car..

It is what I have. I sold my prelude so I could move to ND for work. Yes you are correct it is a 94 accord. The MSD is left over from my h22 5 lug bb1. I would like to use it on the accord so I can feel a little better about driving a slow *** car lol. I still haven't been able to locate what im looking for...I know.. im a tard.

Again not sure why but what the heck.

Get a dist from a non-vtec 94-95 Accord. There are a ton of write ups on how to wire these. Most of the time people are going the "other way". Meaning they are putting an internal coil dist where the factory was external.

Somewhere I remember Ghost posting a nice drawing of how the wire go for the swap.
