GM® LS2/LS7 Manifold Mount Wire Harness

SmartSpark™ Logging Software - It's Very Unqiue!

The unit is preprogrammed with advance tables suitable for a wide range of normally aspirated high performance engines. Users can digitally set launch, burnout, and maximum RPM limits with 100 RPM steps from 3,000 to 9,900 RPM. Access to launch and burnout RPM limits requires optional USB interface and PC Link software.

The USB interface and PC Link software allows programming a custom 3D advance table based on RPM and manifold pressure. SmartSpark™ Log software displays real time engine data during initial setup and dyno tuning. Also allows individual cylinder timing (ICT) capability with RPM based offset up to ±5° with 0.1° steps.

The SmartSpark™ features three (3) general purpose input terminals. Inputs can be used for RPM limits and multiple retard functions including driver adjustable retard (requires optional RTD-1 unit). Mode switch allows selection of basic functions. Advanced features require optional USB interface and PC Link software. Unit status LEDs show trigger inputs. The module is fully encapsulated construction without any internal voids and uses heavy-duty 12 pin Deutsch® connectors used for signal connections.
