Guys with a Tach- question

[ccd3]

Hey Folks,

I don't have a tach on my truck and was curious: I'm running a 1971 350 with a TH 400 transmission and 3.73 rear. Could you tell me what the shift points are puttin' around town and what the shift points are when you wick-it up?

The reason I ask- my MSD HEI module went out last week. I ordered another one. Right now I'm running the factory-stock GM HEI. It occurs to me that I probably don't even get any benefit from the MSD because I probably never get into the upper RPM ranges... Of course I stick my foot in it every once in awhile just to remind myself I'm not in my Jeep Cherokee- but for the most part I'm just loping it around town.

I'm a little snake bit in regards to the MSD module. It's been flakey since I've owned the truck (About 4 months). Sometimes it would just fail to pass spark to the coil. Wait awhile- then it would start. It left me walking last week. I have to say, the GM module just looks better-built. The MSD I took off has all the electronics exposed- covered in lucite or some material.



Thanks
