MSD Offers Classic Looks and Modern Technology

Todd Ryden, Director of Marketing, was helping MSD celebrate their 40th Anniversary at the PRI show. To mark the occasion, Todd showed off the limited edition (only 4,000 will be produced) 6AL 40th Anniversary Ignition Box. It has the first MSD Ignition logo cast into a one-off housing and includes the vintage decals.

Each of the 4,000 being made is serialized and includes a limited lifetime warranty. They feature the built-in soft touch rev control adjusted with rpm modules that MSD has become known for, as well as all the other great features of the standard 6AL ignition box. This would be great for someone looking to upgrade their car’s ignition with era correct components.

Also new for 2010 is the Start and Step Timing Control. This compact controller provides an adjustable start retard to help high compression engines crank over easily, plus it has a single stage retard. The unit measures 2.75”x 2.37”x 1.25” and simply connects between the distributor and the MSD Ignition. Two rotary dials offer simple adjustments. It’s perfect for high compression nitrous cars.

Todd is proud of the Programmable Digital-7 Plus Box. If you want to take advantage of minute changes in timing during a quarter mile pass, then the Programmable Digital-7 Plus is the ignition for you. All of the standard programmable features such as Individual Cylinder Management, Step Retards, Rev Limits, and Shift Points are included in the Plus version. However, you also get even more with this version! The Ignition is supplied with wiring harnesses, mounting hardware, an RS232 computer harness, and the Pro-Data+ software on a mini CD.
