I bought an MSD 6AL ignition control today and the instructions are crap. This is exactly what came in the box, it tells me nothing.
http://www.msdignition.com/pdf/6%20series/6series.pdf I'm thinking I just might have Cartronics do it. Is it really a bia to install myself?
Uhhh.... on an Ecotec? All third gen J-body cars are DIS ignition....
The first hint here... on the first page:

Note: An MSD 6 Series cannot be used with distributorless ignition systems (DIS).
Return it, buy yourself a DIS-2. There's instructions around here somewhere.
you need the dis-2
I was a retard, and now I'm permanently banned.

Should have came to your fellow J-body guys first
Also, read the ECOTEC Build Guide, you'll find some help with how the whole thing works and installs on there.

Yeah really, I decided to listen to my step-bro on this one. Not so smart I guess.

It's all good...we all make mistakes, that's a part of learning. Atleast you now know that forum whores like me, Fire Fighter & Spotabee are here to help you.
Also, I'll say it again... READ THE
ECOTEC BUILD GUIDE!

lol, yeah I've read it before, I guess I'll go through it again. I was told it was gonna be an easy install though. The guide seems like it says otherwise. Well, for the $500 I'd spend on the DIS-2, I could buy something cooler I suppose.

Yeah, it's an involved install and you're probably right, for $500, you could buy something more worthwhile.

We'll see what that's gonna be, I'll sleep on it, goodnight.
