Hi,
Is anyone out there using the MSD Digital E-curve distributor PN 8503. It is for the Ford 289/302. Not really sure the best way to set up the switchs. If anyone is using this please PM me or leave a message here. Thanks

Here is the perfect answer for anyone who owns one of these distributor, or is thinking about getting one.

I found a guy a while back on another site and finally tracked him down, Randy Harper.....he has a product that you can find on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MSD-E-Curve-Full-Version-Software-Ecurve-Excel-Sheet_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZalgoQ3dSIQ26ituQ 3dUCIQ252BUAQ252BFICSQ26otnQ3d12Q26poQ3dLVIQ26psQ3 d63QQ_trksidZp2773Q2em263QQcategoryZ33690QQitemZ32 0440849856which which is freaking awesome for owners of the MSD Pro Billet Digital E-Curve distributor. For setting the timing on this particular distributor, there are 2 dial switches that are set inside the unit.... based on what you want your timing to be at. MSD included in their owners manual, 2 horrible graphs that are difficult to understand and very incomplete as for as the needed comprehensive setup info for the E-Curve.

Randy went a hundred steps forward and developed a programmable Excel spreadsheet, in which you merely plug in all of your timing information and you get the correct settings for the 2 dial switches inside the distributor......the cost of $7.99 is rediculously cheap. Randy included specific step by step setup info to be completed before making the final settings on your E-Curve distributor.

I am confidant my engine will be running at it's optimal best after setting up the MSD distributor with the help of Randy's product. THANKS Randy!!
