Just got a blackout in a package deal, the thing is it's missing its boards. Not familiar with system 6, what boards would I need to get this thing running?

Just got a blackout in a package deal, the thing is it's missing its boards. Not familiar with system 6, what boards would I need to get this thing running?
Quoted from damadczar:I don't wanna take my back glass off to double check, but I think you'd need:
MPU
Driver
Power Supply
Sound
Speech
I'm pretty sure they sell a combo MPU + Driver board, and I think there's also a combo Sound + Speech board (I think).
I've not done an exhaustive search, but that's mainly what you'd need.
Is the display driver board also missing? If so, you'd need that too.
Display driver might be missing too as I dont recall seeing any Displays. I was told it was missing boards but I never opened it up to see yet. I might just go with a wolfpack kit if displays are missing aswell
Quoted from Clytor:Wolffpac is my go to. Also, you could just get a power supply PCB from Kohout or x-pin and then a Pinball Technologies NW-7(MPU, Solenoid driver and sound board in 1).
I was looking for the nw7 but it seems like it might not be available anymore
I dont think my game has the displays harnesses but I could be mistaken since all harnesses are just a jumbled mess. Is there anywhere to get replacement display harnesses if im missing them?
Quoted from RCA1:Do you mean depth, or wall thickness?
Some basic dimensions on a similar baffle here:

Thanks I will use the dimensions from that.
Also wondering what tools are needed to repin the connectors in system 6's? Ive only really have experience with repining gottlieb system 1's
Quoted from Clytor:I want to replace the backglass on my Blackout. I know Coos makes them and they aren't the cheapest option but look great. Have anyone here ordered the one Planetary carries? I was curious as to the quality of it.
I have one too, I haven't installed it but it looked good when I took it out to check it over

This has led me to wonder: Is there a best replacement display recommended for this game/era, ideally perhaps one that scrolls to allow for millions instead of rolling the game?
I like Wolfpac or xpin, but you would have to replace them as a set and not just an individual one. No display will show millions without alot of modifications https://www.pinball4you.ch/okaegi/pro_d7f.html
