The Rev-N-Nator is here in Venezuela

[Nacho-RT74]

what you read. I decided to be a Guinea pig

I have to say THE UNIT IS HEAVY... so it looks have some irons inside LOL

THE LEDS ARE ALSO A TACH... nice feature. Not EXTREMELY usefull being is on thousands steps, but not bad either

Me likes so far

Hopefully it performs well. Now you have another transistor to test Nacho 

[charger Downunder]

Looks very good i bet in the future the push button will be the problem with these. Would of been better to be designed with no moving parts.

[440]

Would look good on our ECU brackets hidden behind the 6 pack    might be hard to see the lights though.

Maybe a replacable button would have been better. It would probably be my next choice when my orange box dies.

[Musicman]

I got mine in Black 

[Nacho-RT74]

when I bought it never said which color I wanted. After they sent I asked Laura which color sent and told me orange. I think I liked orange idea since, matches my air cleaner, but now I see the black dunno what I would choose though. I like in black too

Now you have another transistor to test Nacho 

I hope not LOL. BTW, the chromed one I fixed, seems to began to fail, missing some beats above 2300-2500 RPMs and begining to get backfiring when that. Wrong transistor or quality transistor issue ? dunno yet. Casuality or not, this new issue began when I got my car broken three nights ago. It was the pickup coil.

Looks very good i bet in the future the push button will be the problem with these. Would of been better to be designed with no moving parts.

if you think you have to set the limiter just once ( theorically ), I don't think is a problem really. True I would have choosen something smaller or discrete to be less noticeable as far is posible

[Musicman]

Popped mine on the engine test stand with my 505-6 a few minutes ago...
I haven't actually tested it out yet, but the first thing I noticed was the O2 sensor readings moved up a notch from 13 to 14.
I checked the rev limiter in positions 1 & 2 (3000 RPM & 5000 RPM) and they were spot on, then I ran out of Gas.     
Oh yeah... the Tach function works too.

[440]

Can you easily remove the Rev-N-Nator.com script or is it printed on the case?

It looks like a sticker but can't tell from the picture.

[Musicman]

It's a raised letter sticker.

[GPULLER]

Thought there was a waiting list.  Where you guys on the list?

[Musicman]

Where you guys on the list?

Nacho was... I'm just Special 

[moparstuart]

Where you guys on the list?

Nacho was... I'm just Special 

i heard that about you before 

[Nacho-RT74]

Where you guys on the list?

Nacho was... I'm just Special 

i heard that about you before 

yes I was on the mail list and got the update

yes a decal, You can remove it if you want or care.

Stu! I'm still working on send to you the deck lid finish panels, allong with some stuff more ( couple of lower 70 plymouth B body grilles ) just that I haven't had time to make that.

i will buy a 70 plymouth lower grille if its nice  , for my 70 , mine not to bad but they warp alittle especially when the bumpers bent like mine 

[mauve66]

i saw those advertised a while back and wondered who would test them first

[Nacho-RT74]

I mounted today... after drive on streets and run on highway, just have three letters to spell

W O W

I can't say more.

my alt said bye bye allong the day. Rotor got open circuit. After find the alt damaged, parked the car for 6 hours to save the rush hour on streets with just batt at a friends home, and when went to search it to take it home got some missfire being engine still cold. I think it can be because this module needs a good and stable power source coming from alt, same as MSD

these are NOS, but need some small argent finish job though

I think you can count on that. 
A lot of the brain box stuff today will not tolerate under voltage situations. Especially with many of today's aftermarket import pick-up coils that don't output a high enough voltage signal to trigger the electronics in the box when the voltage is down. This was the big issue over at FBO a while back when they first came out with the new HEI units.

[bull]

Any news? Did you get the bugs worked out?

[Musicman]

Any news? Did you get the bugs worked out?

Hey Nacho... did you fix that alternator yet or what? 

[RECHRGD]

Nacho... Can you expand on the WOW?  Good WOW...Bad WOW?

[GPULLER]

Yeah, we want answers!   

[440]

+1

I at first thought wow as in good but toward the end I thought maybe wow as in bad.

Nacho - please explain.

[440]

Hello Nacho  


Did you abandon ship?

[Indygenerallee]

Nacho has left the building!!! 

[Budnicks]

  , inquiring minds want to know  ....

[Ghoste]

They have an endorsement in this months  MCG if that means anything.

I talked to the guy who runs the show at www.theRTgarage.com , who is putting out the Rev-N-Nator, over on a thread @ Mopar Muscle Mag. forum, he says it's been R&Ded for a while now, it can replace the MP Chrome box or MP Orange box easily, I asked if it was multiple spark, he said "no", I asked if it is stock tach compatible & if not what tachs will & won't work, {supposedly no issues with stock tach} but I didn't get a great response to that question, I asked a bunch of stuff, he answered many of the questions openly, I asked if it could replace the Super Gold MP CEI/ECU, he said "they didn't do that compairison".... Sounds promissing, we will soon see, if it will stand up to the test of time... Orange or Black $189.00 added; he said it also has more than 20* of spark dwell

[Musicman]

I had mine on my engine test stand which has a standard Sunpro Tach mounted on it. I had no problems with the tach. 
Haven't had it in the car yet... The car is being dismantled for restoration at the moment.

[Nacho-RT74]

WOW in good, sorry, LOL

I have been REALLY REALLY BUSY!

Remember I'm not an expert and still playing with timming, iddle, mixture etc... Also my opinions can be not exact on the correct therms.

right now I'm having a small hard starting issue, but as I told you, I'm playing here and there yet. Also SOMETIMES engine dies off when with AC and set reverse with brakes pressed. I also likes to start the engine without need to get gas pedal pressed, just giving some juice before start up.

with engine HOT, sometimes cranks slow

yes, alt was replaced, new unit, on Mopar box, lates 70s kind, acclaimed 100 amps on box ( have doubts about ) but sure is working GREAT.

I have been emailing with Troy and Laura ( RTgarage owners ) frequently, and Troy always advices me to get disconected the vacuum pod at dist because the way how it is designed the module, the vacuum advance throws away through the window all the electronics built in it, but, really, I don't want to disconetc it, however I'm having shortened the pod advance on every test. I have got success on every change to set it better, and JUST with AC on and going up on highway on a hill, getting full throttle, I'm getting a small pinging what goes away quick.

Still need to change springs on MP dist to get some other results. I have right now Pink and Orange. timming, around 12º initial and  I set I think 20º gap on mech advance slot, what makes 32º, but vacuum working.

[Nacho-RT74]

OH forgot to say, I'm running FBOs coil yet and Troy told me they got some issues on testings when running FBO coil so advices to get the MSD blaster 2 coil... not a problem since I have 2 of those ( chromed ) just haven't had the time to replace it.

[Musicman]

Keep your vacuum advance connected. 

I saw and talked with Troy at Carlisle... he had an open unit there, so he showed me the electronics within the Rev-N-nator. That said, you may or may not have an issue using the old style A688 coil from FBO. You shouldn't however, because it's designed to work with existing equipment, but the new HRR688 FBO coil, or the MSD Blaster unit would probably be better suited to the task. The Rev-n-nator is not built like an old Mopar unit, it just looks like one.
Troy felt the unit was ready for market, but according to Troy there's still a lot of testing going on behind the scenes ... their still working on improvements as we speak. The little red spot on the back of the unit will be gone in the future.

Hi guys
some time has passed. . . How are you liking it? Is it still working and holding up to the claims?

[wstool]

Have put them on 5 cars so far , from small block, stock Hemi and stroked 440. Had to retard the timing on one.Seams to run noticeable  better with it on. The rev limiter is a big plus when doing burn outs .
