hooking up MSD ignition ?

My truck has a MSD distributor ,coil and 6AL box ,this came with the truck when I bought it. I have rebuilt the motor and am hooking it all back up. My question is this setup had a condenser on the coil. Do I really need this ? As far as the wireing goes the box has a battery + ,ground ,hot to ignition fuse box,+ and - to the coil and wireing harness to the distributor. Anything else ? Thanks

call MSD tech support, they are great at walking you through what ever you need to know...

Listed in info, or your local msd dealer (parts store) should have the #.

also remember the 6AL has a rev limitter....(sp?) so you "can't" blow the engine.....
