Inliners International Forums General Discussion Hi Performance MSD Box

I swapped to another switched 12v, .015v when switched off. I'm still having the same problem. I read the voltage on the wire with the ignition OFF and the truck running. I got around 8V.

Joe-- I'll check into that. I did install an internally regulated alt. I haven't had any problems with it though. I'm thinking you're onto something.

Jaime-- The diode is one of the later HEI units. I think it's a 5 pin one. It's only needed when you use that type HEI, and if you experience hesitation upon deceleration. I also used the same wire from my Pertronix setup on my MSD box.

I'll take another look, or three, at it. Thanks guys. John
