Next stop is power. I am connected to the starter, and have a couple of connectors in the line so that may be the issue.
I have read about many connections to the rear fuse box and would like to understand the pros and cons.
No more wrenching tonight, but will be searching the forums for more clues.

the capacitor should be a 10,000 UF 25V electrolytic capacitor. the - connector goes to ground. the "+" side to the power wire going to the MSD.
When you say connected to the starter are you going through the 14 pin connector in the rear? Or are you connected to the heavy red wire in the harness that goes to the 14 pin connector?
