I have the crane boxes,still going 10yrs later,msd was always a crap shoot,thats why I wired them in so I could swap a couple of plugs and run on the stock ignition system. |
The Crane ignition line has NOW been taken over by F.A.S.T. They don't have the version with the built in timing curves tho'
http://www.jegs.com/images/photos/20...-6000-6300.jpg I ordered one DIRECTLY from FAST and it showed up with "CRANE" stickers on it ... |

I run a 25 year old 6m2 box that has spent the night under salt water twice, and a pro billet distributer that's 14 years old and has been under salt water for a night along with the msd coil I still run. I've never understood the bash msd posts, except maybe the fit of the rotor in the cap which once addressed isn't a problem.

MSD.... May Soon Die ! Ive installed litterally Hundreds of them .... and they arent worth a **** . We had to run them in NASCAR because it was the only ignition legal . Thats why Every Team has it set up redundant.
ARCA allowed the Crane box and so did the Truck Series , you couldnt kill them ! I have 2 or 3 left over Cranes running around in various toys now and no problems. I personally beat an MSD box into the Concrete, on live TV at Bristol , with a 5Lb hammer , after it cost us the race we lead 250 laps of , with 20 to go..... Felt Gooooooood |
MSD boxes
I too have had the on the lake MSD failure, and it ain't fun. What is everyone's opinion on Pertronix distributors and boxes? Don't see much mentioned about their stuff, just wondering.

Run an MSD 8222 capacitor. Brad Smith idea, voltage spikes kill boxes, especially the newer ones for some reason.
I have a Daytona Sensors™ CD-1™ Kit, Part #102003 new in the box I don't need, has all paperwork, software disc and all computer cables for tuning. Hard parts list below; Part #102001 CD-1™ Ignition Module (with Wiring Harness) Part #102002 Ignition Coil Part #115012 2 Bar MAP Sensor (for supercharged applications). |
