I'd give my eye teeth for that kind of HP :)

"Every electrical component in a car is wired in parallel. (except for the switches that control each device) The positive harness is hooked to the battery on one side and feeds each PARALLEL circuit which is hooked on the other end to the battery via the ground. The only reason that wiring in parallel could limit the supply of current is if there is something in the circuit that specifically limits the current."

????????????????

Curious, instead of all the fancy electronics to get the trigger signal inverted, why can't you tap into the trigger signal on the PCB in the DME before it gets inverted by the main output transistor?

Could an inline capacitor bump up the signal before the pigtail if using a single unit?

You can. If you want to open the DME and bypass the driving transistor (jumper on pin 1). This can also introduce other other issues. The tach (pin 21) may be an option as well.

Yes. Merv, you know I have stated this before. Although, My Carrera coils are performing great.

Loren, does the 993 twin pack coil have a lower primary resistance? I suspect so by a couple of tenths. Could be a factor factor in a little more power is so.

Here you go.

Loren, I find your MM comment is offensive.
That said, I am not an electronic engineer so when we have questions about what system will function or what level of performance would be offered by a system , we use the tech services offered by that company.
With respect to triggering two MSD Blaster II coils with one MSD 6AL cd box, the MSD technicians say that there are no problems what so ever.

Now we can all debate the issue of maximum performance until the end of time but one 6AL triggering two Blaster II coils works well and we have years of experience to prove it.
Not theory but actual road and race miles.

For those inquiring minds that need the answers straight from the horses mouth, call MSD yourself.

Single 6 AL with 2 coils . 4 or 5 track days and still working flawlessly.

You and Loren "seem" to have a history of disagreements. Please, lets get over it!

***I suspect he finds it offensive that he is being COMPARED to M.M. ***

by the way this is great info as I am thinking of utilizing my twin plug dizzy on a project I'm about to start. I don't have the coils or cd boxes yet. I do own and MSD 6al and one blaster though.

Fact:
A typical DME will drive two Carrera coils unless high revs are required for an extended period of times. I know this for a fact! Therefore, it is reasonable for a MSD to perform the same if not better. A comparison test would be high revs for an extended period of time.

I find Loren's tone often offensive and who wouldn't be offended by being mentioned in the same breath as MM.

What history?
I did some research and only found one thread that Henry and Loren were involved in.

Patton: It's mindless banter like your reference that keeps top quality techs like Henry from posting here.

Finally, theory is great but I'll take practical experience every time.

Henry
Thanks for posting your experience.

Turbo_pro.
What mindless banter are you speaking of?

I say again. What history? Post a link to the history you referred to, so we can all see that you don't post BS.

I recommended that WydRyd go with the MSD system SmileWavy . So what Mr. TurboPro is your issue? :rolleyes:

If you want to see my data, I ran a HP 3.4 twin-plug with a single DME output, I'll do it gladly. I would have no issue going back to that setup if I were not running high rev from time to time.

I also designed and am running my current set-up which is well documented.

Patton, if you read through the post again you'll see that no one suggested you are full of BS. TP merely stated that he could find no bad blood (your words) between Loren and me and I agree.

I was offended by being compare to MM.

You came on pretty hard with an attach on me. TP felt you were out of line and the next thing we know you have a complete melt down.

It is possible to go back and delete a post and you might consider that possibility when you cool off.
Have a great week end.
Cheers

I'll step in here. I have emailed extensively with Patton and had a few phone conversations as well. He is a stand up guy who spent considerable energy and money on his twin plug solution so the rest of us don't have to.

He got poked a little here so forgive him for getting upset!

For those interested, you can search out posts by the combatants and make up your own mind....

Henry, I agree, Loren was a little offensive toward you.

Cheers

Interesting.
Catca, thanks for putting things in perspective.

Henry, I don't see that attack on you. Please, if I'm wrong so be it and I apologize.

Henry,
Nice to see you posting again. As always, your "real world" experience and knowledge is greatly appreciated. I know it's tough to come to the party when everywhere you turn you have to deal with know it all Blow Hards, (you know who I'm talking about) with very little if any real world experience. Keep up the good work and please continue to share your knowledge here on Pelican. BTW, my '74 turbo is still running REALLY strong and is as fun as ever!!
Thanks,

Bryan Beaumont

Blow Hards?
