I don't trust my tach and my rev light died. Thinking of installing a rev limiter. What do you guys think?

The Mallory 6AL (my preferred unit) has a built in pot for adjusting RPM in 250RPM increments and puts 500V to the coil with multi strikes below 3K RPM. That means I can run plug gaps in the .045" range, starts and idles like a champ, and will create a light show if one of your plug wires comes loose.

The new MSD boxes have the same adjustable RPM limit right on the box. The old ones took pills. |
