Nope....i mean completely pull the ignitor out of the distributor...if you remove the ignitor completely you will suddenly find things like your stock tach dont work without some extra goodies.

 

There is another option to bypass the ICM but it requires building a more robust ICM and runs external to the distributor. Ill see if i can dig up that circuit.

 

im currently in the process of doing a bulk purchase of the parts needed and having pcb's made to build kits.

 

this is courtesy of Matt, however you are still running an ICM so you are not bypassing it technically as with an M&W setup

 

yup...thats the proper way to get rid of the factory icm

 

Technically speaking you are still running an ICM so you can either take time and spend money to build this setup or do it right and get a M&W setup...

And lets make this clear the Circuit came from Matt (Dax) not you!

 

never said the circut came from me... lol

 

For those interested in this option here is the original link. Matt is no longer making these so don't bother asking him to build you one...

and dax wasnt the one who came up with the circut...J&S did years before he posted that.

Fair enough lets give John credit.

And to get back to this post, this setup will work just fine, the MSD tach output will drive the oem tach
