$499.95

MSD 6M-2L Marine Ignition Control Box with Rev Limiter

120-6560

MSD 6M-2L Marine Ignition with Rev Limiter

    Highlights:
  • Designed for performance marine applications
  • Weathertight connector with multi-ribbed seal for reliable connection unaffected by water, oil, gas, and most other boating chemicals
  • Completely potted circuitry with polyurethane for weather-proof protection
  • Triggered by magnetic pickup (distributor or crank trigger), breaker points distributor, or amplifier
  • Tested and certified to meet or exceed USCG standards
What do you get when you add a rev limiter to the MSD’s already bullet-proof 6M-2 Marine Ignition? The MSD 6M-2L! This ignition is designed for performance marine applications where a high energy and reliable ignition is a necessity. The capacitive discharge (CD) multiple sparks from the 6-series circuitry ensures easier starting, improved performance and reduced plug fouling while idling.

The MSD 6M-2L has the same mounting footprint as the original unit, so it will easily fit into existing brackets. The proven Soft-Touch rev limiting action is set using our marine rpm modules so you’ll be able to set a rev limit exactly where your engine needs it.

The 6M-2L is built to deal with constant high rpm and load conditions unique to marine applications. To protect the 6M-2L’s electrical circuitry from direct water contact, the entire unit is potted with red polyurethane. This material prevents the electrical components from coming into contact with water or other chemicals that could cause damage. Weathertight connectors with multi-ribbed seals are unaffected by water, oil, gasoline and most other chemicals associated with boats.

The 6M-2L can be triggered by either a magnetic pickup (distributor or crank trigger), amplifier or by a breaker point distributor. The cable harness has the proper connector so you can plug the 6M-2L directly into one of MSD’s Pro-Billet Marine Distributors.

    Operating Specifications:
  • Spark Energy: 105-115 mJ per spark
  • Primary Voltage: 460-480 volts
  • Secondary Voltage: 45,000 volts (tested with Blaster Coil)
  • Spark Series Duration: 20° crankshaft rotation
  • RPM Range: 15,000 RPM with 14.4 volts
  • Voltage Required: 12-18 volts (negative ground)
  • Current Draw: 1 amp per 1000 RPM
  • Size: 8" Length x 3.5" Width x 2.25" Height

MSD has raised the bar and added an all-new UL listed marine ignition box to their lineup. The 6M-3L is a fully sealed unit with a single wiring connector makeing installation neat and easy.

Three rotary dials and an LED display simplfy setting the cylinder select, start retard and rev limiter. Plug-in rev limiter chips and hard to read dials are a thing of the past. For diagnostic purposes, the LED display can also be set to a live tach mode on V8’s and even display battery voltage with the turn of a knob.

The 6M-3L is a capacitive discharge ignition that multi-sparks from idle to 3,000 RPM providing a clean idle and quick throttle response. Above 3,000, capacitive discharge sparks will run clean through 12,000 RPM . Boasting more features and higher spark energy than its predecessor, the 6M-3L is the performance upgrade your boat needs!

MSD 8.5 MM Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Set, GM LS1, 1997-Present

120-32819

MSD 8.5 MM 8.5 MM Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Set, GM LS1, 1997-Present

    Features:
  • Made in the USA
  • Custom fit for make and model listed.
  • Wires are precut to exact specifications
  • Bolt-on performance

Engineered from the inside out, the 8.5 offers everything you have ever wanted in a wire; incredibly low resistance without electronic interference! In a single 8 inch length of Super Conductor Wire there is only 40 - 50 ohms of resistance! That is the lowest resistance of any helically wound wire. To accomplish this, we use a copper alloy conductor due to it's great voltage carrying capabilities. The low resistance results in less loss in spark energy so more reaches the spark plug. The conductor is wound extremely tight around a special center core. So tight in fact, that there is over 40 feet of conductor wrapped into a single foot of plug wire. This winding procedure, combined with a ferro-magnetic impregnated center core, produces an extremely effective Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) "choke". This choke, or suppression capability, keeps the EMI inside the wire where it cannot interfere with other electronics on your vehicle. The outer sleeve that surrounds the conductor assembly is just as impressive. A proprietary blend of silicone and synthetic material produce a sleeve that is highly resistant to high heat as well as abrasion and tears. The MSD's 8.5mm spark plug terminals feature Dual Crimp terminals. As the name implies, the terminals feature two crimps; one for the sleeve of the wire and another separate crimp to grasp the conductor.
