Customers can save up to $140 when they purchase a MSD Pro-Billet Ignition Bundle for their small-block Chevrolet, big-block Chevrolet, or Ford small-block engine. These packages include a Pro-Billet distributor, the new Ultra 6AL ignition box, a Blaster 2 coil, and MSD Timing Tape.
MSD was born on the leading edge – and it’s never left. The enterprise that became the MSD we know today was founded in 1970 by a pair of engineers from the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. The research and development startup was working on a lean-burn fueling strategy called Electrasonic Fuel Induction. They embraced an emerging technology, capacitive discharge ignition, and developed a multiple-spark-discharge strategy. Ultimately, and ironically, their efforts in producing a system for fuel efficiency led to today’s high-performance ignitions and the upper echelons of racing.
MSD 6AL ignition systems are all about superior spark energy. These systems pump out the millijoules, producing a great deal more energy output compared to traditional stock setups. The goal is to ensure complete combustion of the air/fuel mixture and enhanced power, especially at higher engine speeds where things happen fast and cylinder pressures run high. On the other side of the spectrum, the system's multiple-spark-discharge design does what is says, providing multiple sparks per cylinder firing event at lower engine speeds, promoting smoother idling and fast, crisp throttle response.
This bundle tag teams the most commonly grouped together components and offers them at substantial savings compared to buying them separately. Here’s a little more detail on the capabilities of the products in this bundle.
The Ultra 6AL represents an evolutionary leap in the capabilities of the 6-series line featuring three rev limiters, Launch, Burnout, and Step Retard Activation, and the convenience and precision of wireless control via the MSD Ultra 6AL Smartphone App.
The 6AL’s Programmable Step Retard can be adjusted up to 30 degrees and is available for, On Ramp time, Off Delay, Off Ramp Time, and Engine RPM for activation. The ignition box settings that can be commanded by the smartphone app or via MSD View software by laptop include, cylinder selection, step retard value, launch RPM value, burnout RPM value, max (Race) RPM value, and start retard value.

The MSD Pro-Billet Distributor features lightweight CNC construction executed to exact tolerances, providing a solid foundation for performance and durability. To accommodate and sustain stability during high-rpm operation, an anti-friction coated, ½-inch steel shaft is supported by a sealed ball bearing and a long sintered bushing. A precision machined reluctor is attached to the shaft which triggers the magnetic pickup mounted in the housing. This high-output magnetic pickup is the most accurate way to trigger your ignition. Plus, with no moving parts to wear or adjust, the pickup is maintenance free. Just above the pickup is MSD's adjustable mechanical advance assembly. Different springs and stop bushings are supplied so you can tune an advance curve to match your application.
A long-standing leader in the world of ignition, MSD’s famous red canister Blaster coil mounts like the factory unit but is filled with high-tech internals that bump voltage to the spark plugs. The Blaster Coil utilizes special 100:1 windings to provide maximum voltage build-up, ensuring a strong and reliable spark and all engines speeds and any spark output condition.
Timing Tape is not a groundbreaking product but its inclusion in the bundle illustrates the attention to detail MSD brings to the table. Knowing the importance of being on the same page as your ignition, MSD has created Timing Tape, a sheet with decals designed to fit eight different common balancers ranging from 5.25 inches to 8 inches in diameter. The tape splices are marked off in one-degree increments from 14 degrees ATDC to 64 degrees BTDC and are printed on tough, chemical-resistant material. Not only do the tape splices help you get an exact timing setting, they allow you to see exactly where the total
The beauty of these bundles is their cost and convenience. MSD is offering savings of up to $140 versus buying the components separately and the products are pre-matched and ready to roll, putting a complete ignition upgrade one simple mouse click away.
