Shopper Award

For a long time, racers have known that one of the best things to do to an engine to improve performance is to stabilize the ignition timing. The MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger system does exactly that by using four magnets embedded in an aluminum wheel. Although similar in appearance to other crank triggers, the MSD Flying Magnet design works on a different principle. Most crank triggers have a wheel, with steel studs sticking out, bolted to the harmonic balancer. As the crankshaft turns, the studs pass by a stationary magnetic pick-up, triggering the ignition. This pick-up can be triggered by other bolts, debris, or even vibrations which will cause a loss of power or engine damage.

The MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger uses four magnets secured in the aluminum trigger wheel that pass by a stationary non-magnetic pick-up to trigger the ignition. This "flying magnet" design produces accurate trigger signals and the non-magnetic pick-up cannot be falsely triggered. Each Flying Magnet Crank Trigger includes a two-piece mounting bracket for the non-magnetic pick-up that in most cases will work on either the passenger side or driver's side of the engine (the SB Chrysler and SB Ford brackets mount on only one side). The CNC-machined aluminum bracket securely holds the pick-up in place and is slotted to provide a wide range of timing adjustments. Spacers are included so you can mount the bracket on engines with standard motor mounts or engines with a .25" motor plate. These systems will trigger MSD 6, 7, and 8 Series Ignitions and all MSD Timing Accessories.

Who is MSD Ignition?

MSD Ignition started back in 1970. Based in El Paso Texas, the company is known for creating quality ignition systems for various automobiles. Today, they are considered the leading company when it comes to the ignition system and has become a brand recognized all over the world.

Changing the Way Vehicles are Made

MSD has helped shape the automotive industry by being the first company in the world to conduct an experiment regarding Multiple Spark Discharge for a vehicle’s ignition system. It has been suggested by Engineers who were working on the White Sands Missile Range in Southern Mexico. They noticed that their quest for power is limited by the amount of spark the ignition system can only generate. Hence, the idea of Multi Spark Discharge.

Racing Application

Soon after the product introduction, racers started applying it to their race cars. Due to its success, other top teams started using MSD which helped paved the way for the brand’s popularity. The majority of the race engines today use MSD and have proven to produce race champions.

The company operates in a 100,000 square feet facility in Texas. They house some of the most state-of-the-art equipment that helps them create products that are superior in quality.
