Looking at the coil it has the coil wire to cap terminal closest to me and then four spade terminals at the top, 2 x 2.
I belive the red wire from the module goes to the bottom right, the wire from the ignition switch goes to the top right and the brown/black (negative) wire from the ignition module goes to the bottom left terminal. Then the top left terminal is for a tach.
Is that right?

I did find lots of info on aftermarket 4 wire HEI ignition modules, like the one in the mini-hei, but they are to improve RPM's above 4,000, which is close to the limit on the old 261 and would be a waste of money.
JiMerit- I appreciate the offer of help. If I can't get in touch with Tom Langdon I'll take you up on it.
