Default K&R delay box?

Was wondering if anyone runs a delay box? I'm looking into putting a K&R in mine as soon as I get a TH3500 or TH400 with a brake in. I'd like to run super pro every now and then until I can get back into a dragster .

Is there any kinda of secret ways to hook them up in the LS based/PCM stuff? I've hooked my old one up in my dragster but was using a 7-AL3 MSD Box. I've got my old instructions and it's pretty straight forward, but I just wanted to make sure theres not trick to doing it with the LS stuff.

all youll need to do is get the msd 2-step for the ls based cars and tie that in with your transbrake.

Thats what I was thinking but wasn't 100% sure. Everything else is easy since I won't be running the stage timer 2 or 3.

BTW. the K&R is a super nice box but its kind of a pain with all the tiny toggle switches. I like the mega 450 better. The dedenbear lightning is good too.

not sure if you have used the pro-cube yet. Just leting you know what I've found with them.

I've ran the K&R for about 3 years in the dragster and loved it, very simple to work. My buddy has the Mega 400 and it seems nice also.

I went to the new Z-Force delay box in the new dragster and I like it, very nice on hitting the button instead of releasing. Thats the one I'm looking at for the camaro.

Definitely, it takes a bit to get used to though. I was actually slower for a while but very consistent. I don't have that flinch like I used to either . I hated those days haha.
