In the follow-up to his bestselling Hot Rod Gallery: A Nostalgic Look at Hot Rodding’s Golden Years: 1930–1960, author and historian Pat Ganahl dug deeper into his massive archive for even cooler and more never-before-seen photos—in both color and black and white—of cool cars and their builders, forgotten car clubs, and others from the period.

Hot Rod Gallery II: More Great Photos and Stories from Hot Rodding’s Golden Years reveals material hidden away for decades in Ganahl’s extensive stash. Readers will enjoy more dry lake shots, post-war rods, lead sleds, and show circuit cars—plus a chapter on marvelous mills.

Ganahl also offers commentary and his lifetime of expertise as you take in the splendor of this collection of fantastic images from the CarTech imprint at SA Design.

Coming soon from MSD Performance is the 6CT: the most advanced ignition control ever to hit a circle track. The 6427 is packed with features, including a large digital LED display that makes it easier than ever to see the rev limiter setting (adjustable via laser-etched rotary dials).

Speaking of, the microprocessor-controlled rev limiting is so smooth, your chassis will virtually be undisturbed when charging into turns. The rotary dials let you select for 4-, 6-, and 8-cylinder engines and achieve 0⁰, 10⁰, or 20⁰ timing retard for quick starts. Plus, the LED display can be used as a live tach or to display your car’s battery voltage. MSD also designed the unit to record the highest RPM your engine turned during the race. The 6CT offers all this and more in a fully potted, tamper-proof housing that uses a single connector to keep wiring tidy.

Features

  • Works with 4-, 6-, and 8-cylinder engines.
  • Large, easy-to-read LED display.
  • Check rev limit, highest RPM, cylinder select, battery voltage, start retard, and tach mode.
  • Start retard is adjustable in 0⁰, 10⁰, and 20⁰
  • Full delivery of spark energy down to 6V battery supply.
  • Efficient, low-current draw extends battery life.
  • Fully potted housing stands up to demanding race conditions.
  • Single plug-in connector for clean wiring.
  • Tamper-proof screws prevent unit modification.
  • Reverse polarity and overheat protection.
