Ok, so being well green to car mechanics and wanting to learn. I dug around under the hood and did not find a MSD box. I followed the center cable off of the MSD distributor cap to a black cylinder device that is called a "BLASTER - Vibration Coil" and that is mounted on the passenger side front wheel fender well.

Open to any ideas or thoughts on this device, should I keep it or go to the MSD box?

I believe this may be the problem. I am mostly by my self so kind of hard to test if I have spark under the hood and turn the ignition at the same time. So I will have a buddy come help me tomorrow and see if I can start to figure things out.

I know there not complicated engines mostly spark and fuel so this shouldn't (hopefully) be this big of a deal to diagnose.
