Has anyone ever installed on of these on a Honda Clone? Any information would be greatly appreciated. It sounds like this ignition system would be a huge performance advantage. With the multiple programmable timing curves and being able to keep the spark at the optimal advance relative to a given RPM and two rev limiters this little box sounds like the holy grail for small single cylinder engines.

Wow! Pretty pricey, I once put electronic Ign from a Chrysler on my Briggs, I saw no difference, but it diod not have the programable curves and such as the MSD does. Give it a shot and let us know how it works.

I was going to get one for my gx390 and my engine builder said not to waste the money. A stock Honda one is just as good

thre was onlocal guy with msd on his mower, it was expensive and difficult he swore it was worth it, but he literlly got his rump blasted every race.  i mean hang your head in shame bad...

The programmable curve will help if you have your motor on a dyno and can put a set timing at all the different rpms. Would be effective on a really loose track and a nice clay track. In between you probably wouldn't notice it.

how would you make it work in conjunction with this?

I did the same in 02 with the Billet flywheel I built on a 28 briggs.. Worked great and still can use it on that motor today.. The hole Ignition system out of the Junk Yard $20.

WOW is right, Don did one quite awhile back  [not a msd though] search "MSD" and it should come up. His setup you should be able to hook up a adjustable MSD box. HAPPY EXPERIMENTING!!  Let us know!
