FAQ:

What does FBO Mean?

Actually we started out as Fuel - Brake and Oiling Systems supplying parts and doing plumbing on mostly on Dirt track cars.  Since 1982 we have evolved from Dirt cars to include street/strip, Drag Cars and tuning Resto Muscle Cars.  

Will it work on my race car?
Yes, however, we don't recommend our system for cams bigger than 260 duration or compression ratios above 12.5:1, many guy's are having success with our ignition system in 9 and 10 second cars with bigger cams and higher compression, the only reason we don't recommend this is our system does not have a built in rev limiter or a multi spark under 3000 RPM like a CD ignition system like the Crane HI-6.  Big cams produce very low cylinder pressure because of bleed off caused by valve overlap at low RPM and some may need that multi spark system to help ignite the fuel.  

 

Will it work with the old points style voltage regulator?

The chances of you burning out the ECU are very likely, When the power spikes it will burn at a specific spot on the internal circuit board and we will not warranty the ECU.  You must convert the car to Electronic Voltage regulation.  Regulator Upgrades Here

What if a component fails?
Any stock component from any junk yard or auto parts store will work with the other components, however the ignition will not be up to full potential and the likely hood of that off the shelf component failing is pretty high.  Order a replacement component as soon as possible from a dealer near you.

         

What about warranty?
If the ECU or Coil should fail within 2 years from date of purchase, return it to the nearest dealer and it will be replaced at No Charge.
This is the absolute best warranty on Electrical Parts in the industry.

I'm switching from points to Electronic distributor, what else will I need?
We also have the conversion wiring harness as shown In the Image above available as an individual item, wiring diagrams are in the tech section. $25.00  You'll also need to convert to a electronic Voltage Regulator VR-1 Restoration correct at $75.00 or the VR-2 Replacement style $28.00

We also offer a complete line of custom curved, phased  and rebuilt Mopar distributors from the 352 Hemi up to the 426 Monster, Early Poly 318's, Wedgies, and all LA engines. Check out our Specials

I have a new cap can I order just the ECU and Coil?
No we don't recommend anything less than the Standard Motor Products Blue Streak HD Caps and Rotors. they are sold as a kit, we do have individual component pricing but it will cost you more buying it that way. *All FBO Mopar distributor caps are TAN in Color and made by SMP to our spec.

 
If your cap has aluminum contacts in it, this system will melt down the contacts and rotor and you'll be sitting on the side of the road, put on the good stuff and throw the other stuff in the trunk for spares.

Note: All FBO Components are designed to run as a complete package, using any other component will reduce the efficiency of this system and Void your warranty.  The coil and ballast are critical to maximum performance do not substitute other parts and expect the system to operate correctly.

Will this system replace my MSD?
In most cases the MSD System is way more ignition that you really need, the FBO System is a Bracket Racer, Street Car and Muscle Car ignition system.  We designed it to be a stock appearing highly efficient system for those who don't want a big red box on the fender and don't want to rewire their cars.  We like to see it teamed up with no more than about 12.5:1 compression, 254 Duration at 50 and RPM in the 5000 to 7500 RPM range.  We do have guy's running this system in cars that run in the 9-10 second area with great success but there comes a point where the cylinder pressure is so low at Idle that you will need a Multi spark system to get  the fuel to fire, if that's the case then we recommend the Crane HI-6 box over MSD. Call to be sure this system is correct for your application

Does it have REV Limiter?
The MSD Soft touch stand alone unit works fine, we are also working on a FBO REV-Limiter which should be available soon. (4.13.09)

What does A688 mean?
It's the NHRA number of our 66 Barracuda, our G642 Coil is the NHRA number from our other Team Car and good friend Allen's "Time Flies" Dart.

Why is this system so cheap?
It's priced fair and reasonable based on cost of product, profit margin and a little to pay me back for the 2 1/2 years I worked on the R&D to get it right, I'd rather die poor and have every Mopar in the World running perfectly than die rich with only 1/2 the job done.

I have a MSD 6AL and Blaster 2 Coil, will this be an improvement?
Probably not, the MSD and Crane HI-6 are good systems, usually overkill for any street application and you'll probably see virtually no difference in performance if you dump the MSD and use the A688 Kit, team it up with one of our custom curved distributors and in most cases you'll see a big improvement over the Universal (Means fits nothing in the Universe) Factory curve of your MSD Distributor.  It's very difficult to find replacement MSD parts if your out cruising 100 miles from the closest speed shop.  However if your using the A688 kit virtually any parts store component will get you home without the aid of Bob's Towing Service.

  
One of the biggest benefits of the FBO Ignition system is the ability to swap in any stock or Auto Parts store replacement components to get you home....

Reliability...No Tow Trucks!

 

Who uses these Components?  
Anyone who wants the absolute best performance from a stock appearing ignition system.
Bracket Racers who don't want or need to spend $600+ on a CD Ignition system and billet housing Ford distributor (Yes, MSD just uses plain old style Ford components).  Their $159.00 HEI's are just a cheap Chinese import POS and totally worthless and we will not work on them.

Cruiser cars that want optimum performance and reliability combined with emergency off the shelf replacement parts.
If you own a Mopar with Electronic ignition then this system will provide you optimum performance on almost any street drivable Mopar.
