LS Ignition Controller FAQs
What ignition control do I need for a stock crate engine?
For a stock crate engine, you can use the MSD LS Ignition system without any additional modifications. It is designed to work with most LS engines and offers six pre-programmed timing tables for easy setup. However, it is important to note that this system does not control fuel, so you will need a separate fuel management system if your engine is fuel-injected.
If the LS Ignition Controller includes the optional coolant temperature sensor does it change the intake manifold pressure?
No, the optional coolant temperature sensor does not change the intake manifold pressure. It only measures and monitors the engine's coolant temperature to provide more accurate timing control. The LS Ignition Controller does not have any impact on intake manifold pressure. So, you can still use it for nitrous and boost applications without any issues.
Can I use this system with the correct configuration aftermarket reluctor wheel pattern?
Yes, the MSD LS Ignition system is compatible with aftermarket reluctor wheel patterns as long as they have a 24x or 58x timing pattern. These are the most common patterns used in GM LS engines. The system also allows for custom programming of ignition timing based on your specific reluctor wheel pattern.
How do I adjust the launch and rev limiters on the LS Ignition Controller?
The launch and rev limiters can be adjusted using the MSD View software, which is included with the system. This software allows for easy adjustment of multiple parameters, including launch timing retard, launch RPM limiter, and rev limiter settings. You can also use a handheld controller to make these adjustments on the go.
Conclusion
Since the GM LS engines are the workhorse of the "Hot Rod" moving into the next century, whether it's naturally aspirated or running boost, MSD LS Ignition provides the spark to release a monster engine power curve that will put a smile on any gearhead's face.
