When you install a crank trigger system, having locked out timing may put a strain on the starter and flywheel. This compact controller provides a retard that automatically retards the timing during cranking to ease the pressure. The MSD starter saver measures only 1.5 X 3.5 X 2 inches and wires into your ignition system with only four wires. It can be programmed to retard the timing 10 or 20 degrees during cranking only. The retard is activated when the engine begins cranking and is deactivated once the engine reaches over 800 rpm. (If the engine rpm drops below 500 rpm it will activate again.) The starter saver receives the trigger signal through an MSD crank trigger pick-up or the distributor's magnetic pick-up. This control has a very accurate pick-up compensation circuit resulting in rock steady timing throughout the entire rpm range of your engine. There is also an LED that illuminates with each trigger signal to confirm operation and the circuitry is completely potted in a polyurethane compound for extreme vibration resistance.
Racers never stop experimenting as they search for every way to wring out more power or handling performance to to gain an edge over the competition. The team at MSD is no different as we strive to deliver the products you need to meet your performance goals. We continue to innovate and invent components and technology that deliver performance and reliability with products that are easy to use and install. Over the course of 40-plus years, MSD Performance has been driving the development of innovative components that helped shape the way our cars race and perform. From super speedways to road courses, land speed racing to top fuel dragsters, and of course your traditional hot rod, MSD has provided the components to fire nearly anything in motorsports. Early on, MSD focused squarely on ignition systems with revolutionary products like the multiple sparking CD ignition, timing and rev controls, billet aluminum distributors and the Pro-Mag, an incredible breakthrough in power and endurance. Today MSD is developing electronics for your entire powertrain. The Atomic EFI systems for the LS engine platform and throttle body are now complemented with a transmission controller. Our DynaForce Starters and Alternators ensure that your engine cranks over to fire up and the Alternators keep it charged. MSD is poised to deliver components that work and communicate together to provide performance and value.
