Iirc you have a thick red and thick black wire that wire direct to the battery. Then you have purple and green that go to the dizzy. A yellow? that goes to the tach, and power from pink ignition wire to a thin red wire and the smaller black and the orange go to the coil.

He has a MSD box Pablo. Try MSD's site it should have everything you need. A keyed 12v source, should be able to find an open space in the fuse block.

Yes, MSD's site will have what you need. You can download a pdf format installation manual.

You can also try summitracing.com when you need diagrams and stuff like that. If you know the part number you can pull the product and they'll usually have a downloadable instructions PDF up on the right side of the screen from the manufacturer. Sometimes easier to have a one stop site that has the instructions on the same place on each page.
