MSD 6AL Test

[7025730168]

So what does msd ignitions do for your car exactly I thought they are just a product to help start your car?

[mherbold]

@7025730168 Ignition boxes don't have much to do with starting your car. That is what your battery and the starter are for. Ignition boxes are what fires off your spark plugs, and can control the ignition timing (by changing when the spark plugs fire) and limit the engine rpm (by making the spark plugs not fire).

In a Drag Car Why Not Go 7AL?

[mherbold]

@Sc0oteR60d They didn't have a 7AL with a 3-step when I bought this.

[darwinschevelles]

[mherbold]

@darwinschevelles Canon Vixia HF11

[InShatteredMolds]

sounds like a trans brake too 8-)

[mherbold]

@InShatteredMolds Well, since trans brakes use 2 steps too so it should sound a lot like one. :-)

man that sounds sweet!!!

i've got super bass speakers and it makes my room sound like the car's right there

[mherbold]

LOL! You should try watching some of my in-car drag race videos... they sound really wild!

[jowek70]

isn't it bad to ride the limiter like that?

[mherbold]

It was only at 3000 RPM for this video. My motor goes up to 6600 at the track.

[weewoodeal]

so what does the rev limiter acomplish out on the road... dont know very much bout it so ...

[mherbold]

It doesn't do anything for street cars. This is a drag race only car and doesn't ever see the street. The rev limiters are to control the burnout and launch RPMs.

[weewoodeal]

i c ...ty

[mherbold]

You're not required to have the MSD dizzy to work with the 6AL - In fact in this video I was using a Mopar race dizzy.
