    If you have an MSD 6AL ignition box, its just a plug-in "plug" and you can select the rpm limit you want.

    'Morning Cp and Happy New Year!

    Question: any update on  part # / item availability for this particular MSD product?

    I ask as, I just got off the phone with MSD's tech. dept and they quickly pointed me to MSD Part # 6425, for well over $200.

    Then, when I went web-surf shopping, the majority of the posts that come up are customers complaining about the 6425 failing, crappy customer service, etc.

    Only reason I am even going down this road is I installed a McLeod diaphragm clutch onto my '73 Chally's original 1"/23-spline trans and NON-original 440 (out a '70 GTX). And, I removed the over center spring. I am not racing, just street use with an occassional (very infrequent) line jump, etc.

    Any insight appreciated!

    msd 8728..works with oe electronic ignitions. about $120. comes with 3 rpm chips. can buy chips for different rpms if desired. the bulk of racers use MSD products without problems. personal experience, worked for a driving school with a fleet of over 100 race cars putting over 2 million miles per year on the fleet. used msd ignition, dist, and coils, with minimal problems. highly recommend them.

    Wasn't there a thread on here recently about a new ignition box and I believe it had rev limiter capability built into it? Can't remember the name, though. Seek and ye shall find..... :wave:

    Mallory 6AL CD digital box has the rev limiter built in and can be adjusted in 500rpm increments from 4500 to way over 8000. I believe it is around $200.
