Gaberdeen, btw great looking engine.


Darrell.

if you are running a dist that requires a box hard to dia, call msd, if you are runnng a stand alone dist unhook the box...but the bottom line is as I always say MSD = MAY SOON DIE refuse to run their junk in my boats or my top sportsman race car...Rob

thanks guys,

offthefront i will get the part #'s later

it's got the msd distributor, and red coil

and the box is grounded to the battery

can i use the crane box, with the MSD stuff..

thanks
q

msd box
 

had 2 digtal 6 go bad in 8 months got stuck again sat , msd is the worst.

you can run the crane with the MSD dist, but with crane not in business right now and issues with MSD pickup in the dist failing I would not....we switched out top sportsman race car to crane last fall, then they went away...jegs took all the stuff back...now have all mallory stuff, their box is slick....have not run the car yet, but soon...unless you need a rev limiter forget a box, does not help performance at all...put a mallory unilite in and forget it..no box, very slick timing curve adj. Rob

Thanks ez, i will definately look into that..

which mallory box r u using by the way..

Just to throw my .02 ..... I have run the MSD's for 2 years with no issues on the Boxes ..... I did have a PU go bad in the Distributor (21.00) ...It was over a year old and MSD sent me a new one ..... However ....Last week we were headed out in the boat and we were idleing out and I told my wife to swap the battery switch to "all" .....She thought I said off ....in her defense the boat is loud ..... anyway she swapped it to off and we continued to idle for about a minute and when I throttled up to get on Plane both Motors quit ....fried one of the boxes ....not MSD's Fault ....I'm lucky it did not get both boxes ......You do hear about the bad boxes ....but how many thousands of good boxes are out there? .........m

make sure the white wire is not grounded

offthefront,

i know, one of my buddies has been running the MSD for about 2 yrs now with no problems, but i guess so guys have all the luck..lol

wobble. no the white wire was not in use,

thanks
