What I would like to do is exchange the new distributor that I purchased with one that has the correct connections and allows for the blaster coil to be used as well (A center post for a spark plug wire).
Look through Corvette specific parts catalogs and you will find what you need. I know lots of guys running the MSD with aftermarket distributors.

FWIW none of them gained anything. All were hoping for a little something and all were let down. They all told me to save my money on that and go for full roller rockers. I did and was very happy with the gains and the money was about the same.
