Need wiring help
I'm going to install my MSD and BTM boxes in the car as opposed to under the hood and I am wondering if I can intercept the coil wires in the cabin. The actual wiring of the boxes is not a problem I am just trying to avoid running the coil wires from the stock location to my install location and then back to the coil. If I could T the ignition boxes into the circuit (say at the instrument cluster) then the stock wiring can stay as is under the hood. Anybody know if this will work? :confused:

Never even thought of that, I'm sure that someone has done this. Try tracing the wires and see where/if they all come into the cabin. If you can locate them all I don't see why it wouldn't work.

They do come into the cabin...... to the instrument cluster, to the computer, and elsewhere. I'm just wondering if the MSD additions have to be on the end of the circuit just prior to the coil??? Help!

Where are you wiring gurus?

Jason, I don't know if my opinion helps, but I feel like giving it :)
When hooking a MSD on a mustang you need to connect to the origonal plug for the coil! Now I don't know how to connect the BTM, but what I would do is....
Trace the wires back to inside the cab! Not only trac it, but acutally cut the wire loom, and bring that plug back inside the cab! Just incase there is other wires branching off! "which I don't think there is" Once it is in the cab, it would be alot easier to deal with! Just plug it in to it instead of cutting the wires short inside the cab! Like I said there might be other wires tied into it, and cutting it short might stop somthing from working!
As you said it goes multiple places! So I wouldn't take a chance of cutting it short! Just bring the wiring back into the cab, and it should be fine!
does that give you any help? Or options?
