howmuch h.p. will a msd 6010 handle
i have a 408 with et 265 heads,comp solid roller cam,and a f-2 procharger that should be making 20 pounds of boost with the pullies i have on it,and a msd 3bar map sensor.it should be in the 1100-1200 hp range. my question is will the 6010box handle making this much power?if not what should i do?im new to the ls engines so any help would be appreciated.

The box doesn't really have to handle the power. All it does is provide a 5 volt control signal to the coils.
Since you are boosted you will probably want to upgrade to better coils. The LS1 coils are the weakest of the lot. LS2 coils have 4 times as much spark energy as the LS1 coils, and the truck coils are hotter yet.
The coils have different connectors, so you may have to do some mods depending upon your harness. Read around, there are plenty of write ups on it.

This doc has pictures. The truck coils have aluminum cooling fins. Just noticed it also list which vehicles had the better coils

The 6010 box has a setting in the software to select between LS1 and LS2 coils. So it supports either one.

Guess I should be careful, I have a 6012 box made for an LS2. But I would imagine the software is the same for the 6010.
