I say try it and we can watch what it's doing on camera...assuming your camera man knows how to use the thing.
    LOL
    I am going to call you Mr. Shaky Hands.

    I agree that the MSD should work ok as setup. I now have additional education on all the switch's under the dash

    Did I mention I hate working under the dash.

    All you need is to look at my license plate and you'd understand. Lol.

    Working under the dash is fine...if you've got the front seat out and are a midget.

    LOL after the gas issues I was scared to watch the video, but it didn't see valves, electrodes, or piston parts coming out of the tail pipes.

    I have a question specifically how you use the controller.

    When I am at the track I do not sidestep the clutch from the floor when I launch. My clutch grabs near the top of it's travel so I might have 4" or so of travel to make when the car leaves. In other words, when I am at the light I essentially have the clutch pedal half way "out" bring up my rpm's, then dump the clutch and mat the gas.

    After reading this whole thread it seems like you have to leave the clutch pedal fully engaged to the floor for the MSD controller to keep pulling timing.......is that true?? I really do not want to change the way I launch.

    Thanks for the help.

    If you are hooked on the clutch cruise control kill switch like me the disengage point is at the very top of the pedal. So you can continue your current launch procedure.
