Default msd 6al w/ rev limiter

hey guys, i just got around to finishing up some wiring on my new install.
msd 6al ignition w/ rev limiter good for when in a bad hole, just pin it and hold on but very easy install even easier with a few brews.

heres some pics check it out

just got it mounted, i had to make a mount for it as there is no room under the hood for anything.

What sort of a benefit did this give you over the stock coil setup?

the ability to say "i have a 6AL box" on a stock compression N/A motor. not much will be gained.

Anything you can do to increase the spark will help in the burning of the fuel. thats why you start better and get better milage.
MSD Multiple Spark Discharge
This unit doesn't just spark your plugs once per firing sequence but MANY times allowing ALL the fuel in the combustion chamber to burn and produce POWER.
You'd be amazed at how much raw fuel goes out the tailpipe of your vehicles. Thats why they have cataylitic converters on cars now.
It's to burn off the fuel before it leave the vehicle. I'd rather have it burn in my combustion chamber so I can get the benifit of what I payed for! Gas ain't cheap anymore!

Why these things aren't standard from the factory is beyond me. They want your vehicle to get the best milage AND emissions but use cheap whimpy spark systems.

i still need to get new plugs, wires ,distributor(or cap and rotor) and a msd blaster 2 coil then my ignition is done. once my strocker is inplace then i will get all benefits from this setup. i get all my stuff for cost or out the back door because my uncle owns a high perf shop here in town so machine work and labour i dont get charged for so i figuered go nuts under the hood.

should be starting a build thread on my strocker in the next month for ppl who want to do it can see its not as hard as it sounds.

not cost effective but would have been nice to buy a cherokee from the dealership already with this stuff in it would have really been trail rated.
