Rev limiter

Hi all,

I was over at a Pertronix supplier site looking around when I came across a "Pertoronix Rev Limiter" Model 600.

Anyone have any experiance with this unit? Seems like a nice way to prevent over-reving an engine.

Not famliar with the Pertronxi unit, but my MSD 6AL uses one. I like having the safety catch there if something fails in the throttle linkage or in my linkage :-)

One example... go to google.com and search for "pertronix rev limiter"... you'll find plenty of info.

Sounds like a plug-and-play rev-limiter for stock and "normal" electronic ignition.

Because it connects directly to + on the coil, I would NOT use it with an MSD or similar "multi-spark" or high-voltage output unit because it may blow the MSD/multi-spark and the rev-limiter itself.

Would a rev limit like that work with mine?
