MSD Digital 6A Ignition Control Box – Red or Black
High-Energy Multi-Spark CDI for Street & Mild Performance Builds
Unlock Full Spark Potential for Your Modified Engine
Whether you’ve added a cam, carb, intake, or headers, the MSD Digital 6A Ignition Control Box helps you squeeze every ounce of performance from your setup. This microprocessor-controlled, capacitive discharge ignition (CDI) delivers multi-spark energy up to 3,000 RPM, ensuring fast starts, a clean idle, and razor-sharp throttle response.
Above 3,000 RPM, the 6A switches to a long single spark, lasting up to 20° of crankshaft rotation to fully ignite the air/fuel mix—improving combustion efficiency and top-end power.
Compact, Durable, and Easy to Wire
With a sealed, locking connector and minimal wiring, the Digital 6A offers a clean, easy-to-install ignition solution for nearly any build. It’s compatible with 4-, 6-, and 8-cylinder engines using a 12V negative ground system, and accepts input from points, electronic amplifiers, or magnetic pickups.
