Thanks. The note says you have to send it to MSD for modificaion??? What do they need to do to it? Is there one specifically for our cars that I can just drop in?

Mallory has a switch as well. Doesn't need pills and I have one for sale for $70 + shipping.

Also, the MSD-8956 is only capable of switching 1.5 amps. On my wet setup both solenoids draw about 5-6 amps total. So I have to run another relay (it has 10 amp contacts, plenty for the solenoids) between the 8956 and the solenoids. I don't know what the LS1 system solenoid draws but you might want to make sure its not too much.

the NX and TNT kits draw around 20 amps.

All kits come with a relay.

Use the relay supplied, and use the Window switch to supply the ground to the relay, not the noids.

just cut the 2 loops and you will put it in 4 cylinder operation, thats all thats needed to make it work on the ls1.

Ryan.
