Default Crank Trigger Wires and BS3 on a Lt1

I am trying to finalize the wiring on my LT1 Stock Eliminator Project with a BS3. I installed a crank trigger and currently have the wires running to my MSD iginition box. I know this isnt right so my question is.....what wires on the BS3 main harness do i connect to the green and purple crank trigger wires?

Thanks for your help

Did your BS3 come with a wiring diagram or PCM pin-out diagram?

should use crank +/- inputs for the crank trigger wires, then your EST/Points output to trigger the ignition box. This is for DFI but should be similar for BS3

it did come with a diagram for the opti spark but it incorporates a stock GM ignition module. Since this is no longer being used, I have to deviate from the schematic a little.


Thanks for the help wicked. Ill take a look at that tonight
