Msd 6al Question....

What kind of MSD box comes with the complete Vortech S-trim. I know that the kit comes with the FMU, BTM, inline fuel pump and some kind of MSD box. What is the correct name. I just want to know which is better for my set up becuse i already have the MSD 6AL.

What is a D-10 box, never heard of it. With the blower, I would get a MSD 6BTM.

that MSD box helps adjust the timming, to avoid engine beakdowns.

Do you have a part number for that D-10 box? You could even use a 6al box with an MSD Multi-Function Ignition Controller part # 8979. This will let you completely control your timing. You can map out a timing curve, control each cylinder's timing and has built in rev limits plus a bunch of other stuff. I am thinking about swapping out my Digital 6 for a 6al with the 8979 for my nitrous system.
