Alright guys so i have a stock 5.0 ignition..and now i am switching over to all new MSD ignition..MSD distributor, 6AL box and blaster 2 coil..and i have everything figured out except what in the world do i do with the stock little wiring harness thing that fits on the stck distributor? with the timing chip and everything..because the MSD dist. only has the hookup for the 6AL box , i know its the right dist. it just doesnt have the hookup for the stock wiring..please help!

You have the wrong distributor. You need to get the MSD TFI distributor for EFI 5 liter. Sounds like you have a carbureted 289-302 distributor.
