The 6AL shares the same proven circuitry of the 6A
with the addition of a built-in adjustable rev limiter.
The combination of powerful sparks with the safety of a
Soft Touch Rev Control is what makes the 6AL the most
popular ignition control in the world.
MSD first developed the Soft Touch rev control to
prevent overrev damage to your motor in the event of a
missed shift or driveline failure. The rpm limit is
adjustable in 100 rpm increments with MSD’s plug-in
modules. When the engine reaches your selected limit,
the Soft Touch circuitry begins dropping the spark to
various cylinders. On the next cycle, these plugs are
fired again to prevent fuel from loading up in the
cylinder. The result is a smooth and accurate limiting
action without backfires or roughness.
The Soft
Touch Rev Control also opens the door for you to add rpm
accessories such as a Two Step Rev Control. A Two Step
allows you to set two rpm limits, one for a holeshot rpm
and another for overrev protection.
The 6AL is supplied with rubber shock mounts and
modules for 3,000, 6,000, 7,000 and 8,000 rpm.
