msd parts
Ok I have a question about ignition systems... I have a msd pro billet 85551 distributer msd 84211 adjustable rotor for a 600hp setup. I think I want fitech to control timing?? Good idea or bad?? I also know that the distributer needs to be locked out if using fitech? correct? This is a street rod not ever going to see the strip , what coil will be a good match?? Blaster 2
I am aslo using a daokota digital dash so interferance could come into play as I have experiecned this before with different plug wires.
I run timing control on all my installs. It adds another tuning characteristic and can be data logged. My Camaro has a pro billet, blaster 2 coil and MSD 6a. Works great. My pickup and others installs, I used a modified small cap hei, blaster 2 coil and msd 6a. Works great also.
As for interference, you are less likely to have any because of timing control. In this configuration the Fitech gets it's signal from the Magnetic pickup. It then uses this information to fire the coil or MSD box. You can use the tach output of the MSD box for your Dakota Digital.
Where people have problems is when Not using timing control. Then the Fitech is triggered by the tach output. This can be troublesome with interference and your tach.
Thanks for the info.
Here is what I purchased with part # and prices so others can get an idea of cost and compatible parts.
This installs with my 600hp no power adder system on a old 1970 ls6 454.

I like the Black version. 😁
It can be mounted in any position therefore not leaving any cooling fluid air pockets.
And its black!!
