Default MSD 6a

I came across a MSD 6a box for verry cheap..... Without having the rev limiter does it even help you?? Is it worth the time?? Thanks

I like the 6al for that feature cause it's got the rev limiter.. but if the price is right..why not get a 6a

the msd 6a?? it's a ignition box...it produces a multiple spark and a hotter spark... in higher hp applications a hot spark is needed to flacilitate complete and accurate ignition.......on a fairly stock set up it's a waste of money

Besides, if you get it tuned later you can have a limit built into the tune. That's the route I took.

It is not hard......I bought the harness.....it was like $10, and it eliminated the need to cut the stock harnesses....
