350 tbi ignition coil connections

Hope you can help, I've gathered all these parts for a TBI conversion now I'm double checking to make sure I've got all the parts. I've checked all the wiring diagrams I can find and it's probably real simple but I can't find it. On the ignition coil there are 2 modular plugs and the high tension lead connection. I've got the cable that goes to the distributor and is connected to 1 of the 2 plugs on the coil what or where does the other plug on the coil go to? Thanks, Eric 1993 chevy p-up TBI

NAPA Echlin #IC29 coil


NAPA Echlin #EC25 Black connector


NAPA Echlin #EC26 Gray connector

I just looked at the wiring diagrams on Autozone, and they only show 2 wires going to the coil. White is for tachometer.

I've got a 92 GMC pickup, so let me pop the hood and see what I can see.
Maybe I'll even post a picture, depending on what I find.

OK... (viewing the coil with the coil wire terminal facing rearward)

The black connector attaches to the passenger side of the coil, and goes directly to the distributor.

The Gray connector (with the heavier pink wire) goes on the driver's side, and the wires go up the harness to the ignition switch. The pink wire is hot, and the white wire is used to trigger the tachometer.

HTH,
Don

PS.
I did take pictures, but I don't think you'll need them.
