460 ignition problem

AS most of you know I have been posting most my problems of putting that damn 460 in my 79 f150 shortbox, but I got everything figured out except this. I can't figure out how to wire the coil and distributor. The main problem is that is so confusing is that I got a new Holley Annihilator Distributor p#-890-113 and the performance module is located in inside the distributer so what do I do with the old performance distributor? and how do I connect it all together. I also got a summit 60,000 volt coil but I can figure that out easy if I can sort out the performance module confusion. Tell me what else of information I need to post as I bet I left some out.

Ruzzzz- doesn't that 79 already have a duraspark ignition? Get a duraspark distributer for the new 460 and plug it into your original harness. The duraspark is really the best for your Ford. The aftermarket dist should be returned or thrown into the trash. DF

Thanks for the advice but I already figured it out. It looks like no more headaches down the roadnow. Plus my 540Hp 460 is gonna be well worth it.
