MSD 8202 Blaster 2 Coil Hi-Performance Installation - Manual

Parts Included:
1 - Blaster Coil, PN 8202, PN 8223, PN 8222
2 - Brass Nuts and Lock Washers
Note: This Blaster Coil Kit is intended to be used with an MSD Ignition. If installing on a stock, points
style ignition system, a 0.8 ohm ballast resistor or resistor wiring MUST be installed. MSD offers
this Ballast Resistor as PN 8214 or the Blaster Coil Kits, PN 8200 and 8203 are equipped with one.
WARNING: Failure to use a ballast resistor could result in personal injury or component failure.
The Blaster Coil is designed to mount in most factory canister coil mounts. MSD also offers a Chrome
Coil Bracket, PN 8213. It is recommended to mount the PN 8202 and 8223 coils in an upright position.
The High Vibration Coil, PN 8222, can be mounted in any position due to its epoxy potting compound.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: During installation, disconnect the battery cables. When disconnecting the battery,
always remove the Negative (-) cable first and install it last.
1. Mark the original coil wires as positive (+) and negative (-) and remove the wires.
2. Remove the high voltage coil wire (spark plug wire) and remove the coil from the bracket.
3. Install the Blaster Coil into the mount and tighten.
WIRING TO AN MSD 6 OR 7 SERIES IGNITION
The MSD 6 and 7 Ignitions are Capacitive Discharge Ignitions. They receive 12 volts directly from the
battery and are responsible for delivering the positive voltage to the coil. Therefore, a 12 volt source
wire is not required at the coil. When the installation with an MSD Ignition is complete, there will only be
two wires making direct contact to the coil terminals: The Orange Wire from the MSD connects to the
coil positive (+) terminal. The small Black wire from the MSD connects to the coil negative (-) terminal
(Figure 1).
