Good question. I have read a dozen threads about that box but have never seen a for sure answer.

The MSD box comes set at 5500 RPM. But since the Edlebrock box has no way of adjusting the rev limiter I hope they didn't set it that low. I think they might have it bypassed.

There will be no question when the limiter kicks in. You will both feel it and hear it.

I'd call their tech support line and find out for sure, and see if it can be changed

Default No rev limiter for Edelbrock.

Here's a quote from MSD tech support:

msdtech21 01-04-2008, 08:35 AM
1.) The Edelbrock box doesn't have a rev-limiter or rev-limiter capabilities.

2.) The Edelbrock box doesn't have the board(s) required for the programming functionality.

Keep in mind that this box was built to Edelbrock specifications. I really couldn't tell you why they opted to have it made as a non-programmable unit. To put it simply they gave us the plans, we built the box. My best guess is the ease of installation.

Thanks,
