Well fuck me! I jumpered in the old stock coil in place of the nice, pretty MSD fancy schmancy one and the car fired right up. I guess the MSD box is OK but the coil took this opportunity to take a fatal dump. Either that or there is a broken wire/bad connection somewhere that jiggled into place with all the jumpering and moving things around. Next break, I'll hook the MSD coil back up and try the wiggle test if it doesn't work.
