The old school Camaro gets the FAST ignition upgrade, which will work wonders when compared to a dated CD ignition that backfired through the exhaust furiously when the engine rpm was against the limiter. We fabricated a lightweight aluminum mount to place the FAST E6 ignition on the transmission tunnel where the rpm limiter can be easily adjusted from the driver or passenger area. These four dials can set rpm limits at anywhere from 900 to 9,900 rpms.
The second and third model E6 CD ignitions boxes include a single and dual rev-limiter option. A single rev-limiter model can cap your engine rpm redline with an easy-to-adjust rotary dial built into the side panel of the E6. FAST’s top model is designed for a full race application featuring a second rpm limiter activated via a 12-volt switch input wire.
For Project Rover, we are utilizing the E6 with dual rev limiters. We will be connecting the stage rpm limiter as a starting line rpm controller by wiring the activation signal from our transbrake circuit. As we push on the transbrake button, the engine rpm will be limited against the torque converter and transmission until released.FAST’s rev-limiting technology provides an extremely accurate design. A smooth engine against the FAST rev-limiter replaces the “popping and banging” such as that experienced with other CD ignition limiters. An advanced sequential limiter digitally controls a sequential drop of a cylinder’s spark one at a time, assuring the same cylinder is never canceled twice in a row. This keeps the engine balanced and producing a much more accurate and stable rev limit.
