    Default Start Retard

    Anyone have experience with using a MSD start retard system on a non MSD ignition system set a 35 degrees advance
    I want to drop the advance to 15-20 degrees on start up only
    This is for use with a Lucas ignition crank sensor, amplifier and coil

    Do you have the Lucas cast aluminum box with hall effect pickup? Ours had the 50% retard built into it triggered with a momentary toggle switch.

    the system is set at 35 advance at the trigger
