WHAT IS DISTRIBUTORLESS?
Late-model vehicles have incorporated ignition systems that have not used a distributor for quite a few years. Reaching back to the
mid ‘80s, some vehicles, such as Buick’s turbo V-6 models used a coil pack with six secondary terminals. This technology continued to
be used on more cars and trucks rolling off the assembly line. These systems use some form of a crank sensor that produces a trigger
signal to the ECU which triggers the correct channel of the ignition.
In recent years, distributorless technology has evolved into coil-per-cylinder and coil-on-plug systems that have an individual coil
for each cylinder. These coils receive voltage and energy through a driver that is triggered by the ECU. These drivers are sometimes
incorporated into the ECU, and other times in the coils themselves (such as the GM LS). In applications that allow the coil driver circuit
to be accessed, an MSD Stacker-8 can be used (four channels for four coils, eight channels for six or eight coils).
The following info will help you get an idea of which ignition is right for your application.
MSD DIS IGNITION CONTROLS
These DIS Ignition Controls provide MSD’s proven CD multiple sparks that will ignite performance
into street/strip cars. The DIS-2 is designed for 4-cylinder engines with two coil packs, the DIS-4
can be used on 6 or 8-cylinder engines with coil packs (and on some 4-cylinder coil-per-cylinder
systems). Both Ignitions have been updated with rotary dials to adjust its two rev limiters and
step retard. See page 37.
PROGRAMMABLE DIS-2, PN 6212
This Ignition delivers incredible spark energy with an array of PC programmable features
including a run timing curve, launch timing curve, boost retard curve, step retards, gear retards,
three rev limits plus more! All of these features are easy to program from your Windows based
PC. This two channel ignition control is for race engines with two coil packs. See page 40.

IGNITION CONTROLLERS FOR THE DETROIT -THREE
The Detroit-Three have been distributorless for nearly a decade! MSD now offers an ignition controller for each; the GM LS engines,
the Ford Modulars and the new Dodge Hemi. These Controllers will connect to the factory sensors (with the accessory EFI Harnesses)
and allow the user to alter the timing curve, set a launch rpm limit, program a step retard or even map a timing curve based on boost
pressure. They’ll also drive the coil packs when an old-school carburetor is added to the mix! Check out pages 40-47.
