Default MSD 6AL Help

I bought a MSD 6AL box for my 2002 Z-28. Since the Camaro has a built in rev limiter what do I need to do to hook this up? Do I need to leave the rev chip out of the MSD box? Or do I need to program the rev limiter out of the computer?? Or will this not work on the LS1 motor? Please help

why did you buy it to begin with? just curious because the ignition system (aside from wires) is pretty good in our cars.

I have always used this box before but granted it was on my older engines.

yea i didnt think you could, but wasnt sure. just my opinion but i think the stock ignition system is plenty good enough for 95% of the cars on this board. when you start getting FI thats when id worry about it.
