I am falling victim to the might as wells:

Sounds like you just got hit with the snowball...

Been brainfvckin' this MSD diagram for a while. I just can't see how it would work. The 2 Step would be on all the time, and the clutch switch does nothing. I think I've got it figured out, but am also thinking that a lighted, 3 way rocker switch to toggle between the line lock and 2 step would work better.

I did get the module extension installed. Doing all this because the 6AL is in the top of the fender- not very accessible once the inner fender is in.

Called MSD about their relay diagram, and dude concurred that it won't work the way they say. So, back to square one.... i think i can get it. The bs speaker wire off the shifter switch was too short, so I soldered some better, newer, thicker wire on. Then, the housing wouldn't close, so the epoxy came out. Heat shrink for semi- stealth.

Yeah, that's a plywood pedal stop on the clutch. It works.
 
I have to admit b*tch status. The new racecar bits have been in for a few weeks and I'm too much of a p*ssy to do on road research. In the spirit of saving face, I am pre-registered for test-n-tune Fri night with my C19 forms printed out and signed. Let's go get kicked out!
I also ordered a label maker with some white on clear tape to label my under dash switches.
PSA: How old is your spare tire? The date code on this Eagle S/T is in Roman numerals, might as well be hyrogliphics! Still got the nips on it, was holding 20psi, and only a few cracks- send it!

Straightened up this mess of a tool kit, too
