Jacobs Ice Pack Help!

Back from a year in Oki,I recently purchased a Jacobs Ice Pack Ignition Kit.Does anyone have a picture, Diagram, or step instruction for the ve on how to install this thing myself. What I need to find is the Distributor.
what I think is the distributor does not look like one at all. This engine is weird.I aready have a copy of Chiltons and it is not helping.Me and my impact wrench have installed everything from my wspd y-pipe to my 18" ADR Reactions.I only went to Midas to fabricate my exhaust.I like to save money. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

your car doesn't have a distributor. it has individual coil packs per cylinder.

if you can get me the jacobs instructions/wiring diagrams I can see if it might would on a VE.

If the only wiring options are like the MSD boxes, you will need to buy 5 more boxes, unless you convert to a waste spark system, but since no one has done that on a VE yet, I wouldn't get my hopes up for that to happen.

Again, if you can get me the instructions/wiring diagrams I can tell you if it will work, or if your going to have a post in the forsale forums.

My options are, connections for vehicles with oem coil, external coil, and bypassing the secondary trigger

it most likely will not work on a DIS ignition...no matter what wiring you do. even their DIS system will only wok on select vehicles.
