Thread: MSD ignition

    I e-mailed an msd tech and he recommended the following for my bbc, digital 6plus #6520, coil #8207, and dist #8562. Do i need the digital 6 plus or will a 6al work. 6al is 100.00 cheaper. Could not find part #8562 for dist. Was wondering is this vacum or mech advance? And which would work best? I am still looking for an oil pan 10 or 14 qt. Any input is appreicated. Thanks alot, first jet to rebuild.

    I put a 6AL and MSD coil on my boat about 8 years ago and haven't had any problems with the equipment at all. At the time I made no other changes to the motor. The MSD stuff really helped the motor fire up better but didn't make much differance at WOT. The thing starts so well now it seems like it's running before I turn the key!

    I just installed the MSD 6M2 with the rev limiter on mine. Its too soon to tell what kind of difference it will make. I used the Billet Marine distributer, blaster 2 coil & the 8mm helicore wires.
    If you haven't bought it yet, try pricing Teague. They had the best price that I found.

    Do any of you guys have experience with Crane's Hi-6 digital, and how it compares to MSD?
