Rev limiters, also known as 2 or 3 steps. I mentioned 1 step because technically the Lingenfelter is a 1 step. It only limits the rpms at the launch.

Anyhow, it just dawned on me right now and wanted to ask, are these limiters safe for the engine? I ask because if these limiters are cutting spark and not fuel, the cylinder is going to get loaded with fuel.

Does the Lingenfelter unit do the same cylinders/coil packs or does it alternate?

You would think to cut the fuel by the fuel injectors.

Anyhow, I just want to be sure that it's safe before I install and use it. Thanks.

I've seen a few n20 motors backfire from hitting the limiters on the spray. Seen worse with rev limiters cutting fuel leans out the cylinder.

I think cutting spark is better, I ran a MSD 7-AL3 for a few years in my old nova, 3 rev limiters, great for top, stage and burnout limiters, never had a single problem with this style (cuts spark) all my friends run the same style rev limiters.

i think it cuts random cylinders also...so like every other stroke that cylinder fires

Yeah, they are perfectly safe. They mix up cylinders every time it cuts out, so one doesn't load up a lot.
