I have the 6al but I thought I read somewhere not to hook it up there? but what was strange last night, I removed the the Right side kick panel and tapped into the white wire for the tach signal according to the instructions in shbox, I found a three prong plug that was just there and checked it for hot and grnd so I tapped into that, I had power to the red but what was strange was on the ground side, my test light was dim, showing some power to the ground? Maybe I need to find a different power and ground source...I will check into the MSD too...thanks

You need to have it checked out and have the problem documented. You don't have this looked at and it becomes a problem after the claim is settled you are SOL. Your deductible has nothing to do with a wreck that was not your fault, therefore any charges should be reimbursed.
Oh well, I will go home and check it out and see what I find.

Michigan is a "no fault" state. You have to pay your deductable, regardless of who caused the accident. I would have to take her to court to get my deductable back, which would never happen because she was some broke girl from Detroit. Car was a hoopty.

I will check the damage when I get home, I didn't even think to bother checking the driveline. And I was in the middle of Woodward in rush hour traffic. I have an IRS audit at work today, so I had to make it in, and honestly didn't have the time to sit there and wait for the police.
If the IRS wasn't at my office today, I would already be down in Kentucky right now. I put in for today off, and then found out the IRS meanies were coming in.

^^ sounds like your bringing everything. I realized once I got here that I forgot my helmet. I don't think I'm going to race anyways unless I get some last minute tuning. Its a complete dog right now

Best luck to all. My spiritual loins are with each and every one. I expect great results from those who've been the most mouthy about their setups.
