MSD 6A

Part No 6200

Autotronic Controls Corp.was founded in 1970 as a research and development company by two engineers from White Sands New Mexico Missile Range. The men and their other partners were working on a lean burn performance fuel system called the Electrasonic Fuel Induction system to help fuel economy of new and older automobiles.

ACC has produced the best performing and most popular performance MSD ignitions for over 20 years. The high energy performance spark of the CD design combined with multiple sparks resulted in a potent performance ignition. Not only did the multiple spark discharge ignite the lean fuel mixture, it made overall improvements in the engine's performance! Improved starting, smooth idle, less emissions and more performance power are benefits every car and truck can take advantage of, especially race cars.

Today MSD Ignition encompasses over 84,000 square feet! There are over 400 employees including an excellent core of highly trained engineers, performance technicians, assembly specialists and a host of performance enthusiasts at MSD Ignition.

Together, our team designs, develops, tests and manufactures the entire line of MSD performance products including Ignition Controls, Coils, Timing Accessories and Spark Plug Wires and Accessories. MSD, housed in three buildings includes four MSD performance engine dynos, two MSD performance chassis dynos, complete MSD CNC and machining performance centers, modern shipping and packaging areas plus MSD performance assembly and MSD performance burn-in departments.

The MSD 6A is the base model of the capacitive multiple spark discharge 6 Series performance design. Whether you have a powerful street machine, hard working truck or trick street rod, the powerful multiple sparks of the MSD 6A will ensure complete combustion. Benefits such as quicker ETs, easier starting, reduced plug fouling, more power and even increased fuel economy can be expected with the 6A's high performance energy multiple sparks. Like all of the MSD 6 Series Ignitions, the 6A will work with virtually any vehicle as long as it has a 12-18 volt electrical system. It can be triggered using breaker points, a magnetic pick-up or the output of an electronic amplifier. All necessary parts and wiring instructions are included (OBD II legal on '03 and older vehicles).
