MSD Power Grid Question

I really like its features Mike, just a learning curve for us old analog users haaa, I feel my issues are RFI and EMI noise and how I have stuff wired from the grid to the crank trigger etc. I was very anal on wiring to the point I had the trigger cables to close to all the other wires and from what I'm told the grid is very acceptable to RFI and other electrical issues .

 

What are the perks of using an fie switch??

 

Something happens to the box or trigger you can throw a switch and fire and run on the mag, if it will start on the mag but not the trigger you can fire it and throw switch back to the trigger. also acts as a shut off when power is shut off to it!

 

Yes it is Like it! I mounted it on rubber pads like MSD box mounts etc, thanks Mike!!!

 

Just an up date for you guys for info reasons, this issue turned out to be the grid itself, after getting all the wiring and trigger cables and harness from Leahy which I recommend by the way, I lost all spark to the plugs from the mag trigger or the crank trigger, tested everything the switch the coil etc, you name it, checked my settings in the grid just in case and the only way it would fire is plugging in the mag without the grid, I'm pretty close to knowing this thing inside and out but it was a learning curve for sure, swapped out the grid and bam!! all works as required and MSD is a pain in the ass to get info from, but I'm not sure I'll stick with this or not but wanted everyone to know what it was thanks for all your help!!!

 

I had three or four of the grids go bad back in 2014 and early 2015. Finally got fed up and switched to a command module. Looking back I’m pretty sure the mag was killing them. Had it mounted on the blow shield on the motor side and was only a foot or two from the mag and wires. But always the same thing, car run like shit ..... swap to a new grid ... good to go , for a couple more races.

 

I finished the car this year, started testing a few months ago and from the get go it was acting like hitting the chip. Wasn't shifting etc. I only have 6 passes in it and finally it just quit last night. I tested it with the MSD ignition tested and it tested good. Long story short it's the box.

 

I like it's easy use and features but I'm not buying 3 boxes etc. I learned a ton on this thing man. How do u like the CM module Jody???

 

Out of curiosity what features would you like to see in the command module. I can think of one that I would like that the grid can do but the CM can’t.

 

I've been told that as well, I dont use traction control and I havent got to use my lean outs yet but working towards them .

 

I like it and its functions and know a lot of guys much better at this then me that like it as well, I believe as we go along the product will get better and better but for now carting around 2 or 3 boxes waiting for the next one to fail suck!! if it wasn't
for the timing on individual cylinders Will what would you be using?

 

Will for ICT what do I need? thanks!

 

yep got it thanks Mike!!
