Here is the Boost-a-Spark (BAS) kit out of the plastic bag. In the bag is a 4 psi pressure switch and some installation parts (vac tee, hose, solder, terminals)
The black box in the bottom left is the controller which will be mounted in the car.
As you can see, the BAS comes with the wiring already terminated to the module. I found this a little bit of a pain as I had to solder extension leads and work around all the wiring loops for the controller and switch - but no big deal.

Since I want a factory appearing engine bay, the attractive anodized red finish had to go. I painted the module a satin black color. I used a spare Ford harness sticker (from a corner lamp harness) to mimic a factory loom.

The wiring was spliced into the coil power feed near the eec diode, under the relay center.
Normally the outside wire goes to the coils on panthers, not the case on mine. Guess it is hit or miss.
The splices are soldered and covered with adhesive lined heat shrink

Don't really have a good picture yet, but here it is installed.
I mounted it to the side of the vacuum reservoir using self-tapping screws sealed with silicone. Works well.
I'm satisfied with the install, to the untrained eye it's just another factory module in a sea of black parts The engine bay STILL needs to be cleaned! I'll be getting around to it soon
