Default Starting problems

Im having problems with my msd ignition. Im getting spark from the coil to the distributor cap, but I dont get power to jump from the distributor cap to the spark plug wires. Does anyone know what I can look at? I have a full msd ignition, msd 6 box, msd distributor, and msd coil, wires. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

If I understand you properly, you are saying that you get spark to the distributor through the coil wire but you don't get any spark out of the distributor to the ignition wires. If this is the case, then most likely you rotor has a burn in it, allowing the spark to jump to ground in the distibutor.
