Is anyone running the programable ignition marketed by MSD & Edelbrock?
If so, can you give me some tech info on it? Is there a place to pick
up an 8cyl ignition pulse in order to run a vintage street rod tach?
Care to scan the installlation / tech sheet info for me?
Thanks in advance,
Mike V

ill be doing this on my 408 that i get in soon...
you use the stock coil packs.... and MSD gives you software to use to control the timing....
from what i can see the MSD 6010 is a really trick piece... i cant wait
the wiring harness is extremely simplified its all wrapped in black loom...
it also comes with a tach signal wire, built in 2step, and built in retard function for nitrous.

I'm mostly interested in picking up the tach pulse and exactly
what it consists of. MV

thanke Ty-Ty13, got the fax.
The MSD unit looks like it clearly has a 12v square-wave tach signal.
That opens the door to to "fuel-only" computers if say, you don't
want to run the factory PCM in a street rod or...<?>.

i am going carbed ls1 in 69 firebird.going cheap route,iron 5.3 block bore to 5.7 bore.i just need a stock 5.3 or 5.7 crank.anybody have one for sale?i give $300 for the 4.8 engine with aluminum heads,bored to accept 5.7 pistons.bought used 5.7 rods and pistons with 10k miles for $50.i am only into project about $500.home port and polish on heads.i want 450 crank horses but i think its very easy to get with our engines.i think i will have around $1500 in engine,intake and msd combined.how is that for cheap.oh,my buddy owns machine shop so i get all service free except for balancing which i get for half.

Hey,
I'm doing this too, in my '47 Ford coupe! One thing I've found out: The MSD 6010 box is defintely NOT the same as the Edelbrock box included in their manifold kit. The Edelbrock box is a stripped down version of the MSD box with none of the extra features (2 step, vacuum/boost, programmable timing curves, or PC link function). The only thing that controls timing on the Edelbrock box is a preset "pill" that plugs in (they give you 6 different ones).
HTH,
Russ
