REV LIMITER
There are two adjustable rev limits that you can adjust; the Max Limit and the Two Step Limit.
Both limits are adjusted in 100 rpm increments by turning the rotary switches on the side of the
Ignition (Figure 4). Note: The engine can be running as you make adjustments to the rev limiter
and retard function.
Max Limit: This is the overrev rpm limit. The Soft Touch circuitry will begin dropping the spark to
cylinders any time the rpm reaches the amount you select, except if the Two Step Limit is activated
(12 volts applied to the Blue wire). The limit can be adjusted from 2,000 to 9,900 rpm. Setting both
dials to Zero defaults to a limit of 12,500 rpm.
Figure 4 Adjusting the Rev Limits.
2-Step Limit: This rpm limit is
activated when 12 volts are applied
to the Blue wire. When activated, this
limit overrides the Max Limit. This limit
is adjustable from 2,000 to 9,900 and
will default to 2,000 rpm if the dials
are set to an rpm below this range.
An example of wiring the 2-Step Limit
so it is activated with the line-lock is
shown in Figure 5.
RETARD STAGE
The MSD features a single stage
retard step that is activated when
12 volts are applied to the Pink
wire. The retard will remain until
the 12 volts are removed. This
retard step can be connected to
a nitrous solenoid activation wire
or micro-switch on the shifter. The
retard is adjustable from 0° to 9.9°
in 1/10° increments. The example
in Figure 6 shows connecting the
retard to a nitrous stage.
Note: This retard will only operate
above 2,000 rpm.
