I've been using the 6AL for about fifteen years now so if it doesn't work  
I've now got much better excuses for those races I lost.  Thanx for  that!
 
That said, we've seen some pretty weird failures on them so carry a  spare. 
 It says a lot when they sell a dual unit setup for NASCAR.
 
Oh BTW, mines on a GT6 racer.

Hi All,  just checking to see if anyone has any experience with using a MSD 
 6al
ignition box in a TR6.  MSD says that their unit doesn't work with  an odd 
fire
engine.  Seems like a TR6 engine is odd fire but I'm not  sure.  Apparently 
one
test as to whether or not an engine is truely  odd fire is to observe the
configuration of the point cams in the  distributor.  The TR6 points cams
appear 
to me to be even  fire.

This is on a 1974 TR6 that currently runs an
electonic ignitor  and hot coil I 
got from The Roadster Factory.  I have added
triple  40 DCOE Webers so I'm 
looking for the best spark I can  get.

Thanks
for any thoughts,  Jim
