which ignition box do most of you use? msd, mallory, crane, etc.? would like to have something with timing control and such was just wandering if one particular kind has alot of problems

 

I am using the Mallory 685 box for my nitrous application. It has both a built-in timing feature and a window switch along with the benefit of having a hotter spark.

 

MSD 6AL here. I think the timing module is seperate for this one, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Comes with a built in rev-limiter, which you can change with plug-ins. You just have to get the adapter cable from MSD, unless you want to hard-wire it in.

 

I was running a Crane Cams HI-6. It was only a year old, approx. 11,000 miles on it...it died leaving me stranded during a road trip. Worst part, it's built in "status Indicator" light was signifying the ignition box was working properly, making it the very last thing I tested/checked.

 

Don't have one of these but a buddy of mine does and they are very nice.

 

I have always heard good things about the MSD unit. Someday when my setup requires it that's probably what I'm going with.
