Finally the video that we've all been waiting for! the official run and install of the Smart spark LS ignition system on a iron block truck LS with a rear mounted cam sensor. The verdict is that the SSLS WILL RUN the gen 3 truck stuff but will have an extended start time or no start in some cases. for now I will be dealing with the extended start time while I assemble the rest of my parts for the front cam sensor conversion.

MSD 6014 VS Daytona Sensors Smart Spark LS FULL COMPARISON | Carb LS | Carbureted LS
Today We will be going through all the pros and cons of the Smart Spark LS ignition module made by Daytona Sensors and the more well known 6014 ignition box made by MSD. Although the 2 boxes are very similar and share several features, the strength of each box comes in the form of the differences between them. This took a lot of time and research to make so I hope you guys enjoy the video and decide for yourselves what you should run on your carbureted ls swap.

DIAGNOSING A BAD MSD 6014- Step By Step Troubleshooting | Carbed LS | Carb LS Swap
After a good year of running my Carbed 5.3, the MSD 6014 that I had installed in may of 2019 finally gave out and I as super mad. I don't even think the carbureted ls ran for more than 10k miles before the MSD box gave up. When people do LS swaps, they do them in hopes to gain what they don't have in their original engine, in this particular case, reliability. Since I daily drive my truck every single day, I need a bullet proof set up so when this MSD box gave out, I got on the phone with their tech line and had them send me out another one. Carb ls conversions are supposed to be easy to work on and straight forward, but if the quality of aftermarket parts make the process of installing a holley carb or demon carb difficult, then what is the point?
#MSD6014 #CarbLS
Today I'll be showing you guys how to set up your MSD modules so you can get your LS swap project running! Any questions feel free to write them down below! These instructions should work for any MSD Box models 6010, 6012 and 6014. The main difference between them(as far as I know) is that the 6010 and 6012 take specific reluctor teeth to work and the 6014 auto detects and adjusts. Price wise they're almost the same, but the 6014 is a bit more expensive. Hopefully this will get your Carbed ls swap running! The Carb I'm using on the LS is a Holley 600 Vac Secondary. Manifold is a Holley dual plane manifold. This set up is a 1975 Dodge D100 Body with a LM7 engine. Process for an LQ4 and LR4 will be the same for you ls carb swap!
Holley HLY-300-130 Dual Plane Intake Manifold- Went with the dual plane for more TQ at low RPMS, the Edelbrock one looks almost the same, but I wanted mine to say Holley lol.

Suggestion. Use cherry picker and 2 straps to hold the engine steady and straight with bolts off the front of the heads when starting on the stand. Also helps reduce twisting and supports a bit of the weight. Can you post a video of the smart spark lights with the engine running?

Good info on the cam sensor setup. I've been running the smart spark on my off-road rig for a couple years with propane. Its been absolutely flawless other than a longer than "normal" start.

@@NightWrencher hopefully you have better luck. I've read that my propane mixer might be worn a little out of spec causing long starts or cranking vacuum might be low to draw the propane thru maybe 🤷‍♂️ I still have both cam sensors in motor and can switch back and forth with no change in how it starts. Other than this minor detail the daytona sensors smart spark has been absolutely flawless. Maybe I need to play around with ignition timing at cranking some too. My idle is like 20° advanced and 34° all in at 2500rpm. No map sensor hooked up. Looking forward to hearing from you and others on their experience with it.

I have the ls smart spark as well I have a question. The power wire when you hook it up I’m thinking it has to have constant power as you are cranking the engine and while it’s running and when you turn the power off it drops current when the key is turned off right
@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher 2 года назад
The SSLS should have power at all times except for key off. If it doesn't have power while cranking, it wont start. If it doesnt have power in the run position, it wont stay running. It needs to have both. Hope this helps.

A bad map sensor will play games with any computer. The best way to check is to swap it and see how it runs or put in a 2D timing table without the map to see if its a timing table issue or a carb issue.

The box should blink once when the ignition is turned on but then go off. While cranking, the box should flash if its trying to fire. Make sure your box is set to the correct mode for the sensors you have. Also make sure youre getting power to the box while cranking and not just with ignition on.

The only reason you would need the alternator would be to keep the battery charged while the engine is running. If system voltage drops below a certain amount, the SSLS will stop working so depending on how long you plan to run it, a simple battery charger should work just fine

Hello, the engine should start your engine out of the box even with no map sensor. If you plan to drive the car with no map sensor, you'll need a laptop to turn the map sensor off in the software and create a 2D timing table. If you try to drive around without the map sensor on the factory settings, you could cause damage to the engine

You can drive around without the map sensor but I would not recommend it. It will keep the table at max advance and could damage your engine. If you do not want to use the map, you have to disable the map in the software and put your own timing curve.

I have a inline fuse hooked up for safety purposes that's fine. I checked the ground got ground but it's simply not working now. Idk if it could be a bad box or not.

Hi I have a question. I have mine setup the same exact way. It cranks over but I have no spark what so ever and my coils are good. It's the 60143 msd ignition. The motor is a 5.3 gen 3 like urs. Its like the ignition switch isn't on. Any ideas? I have the negative and power all hooked up along with the pink ignition wire. I've replaced both the cam and crank still no spark
@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher 2 года назад
The box has 3 negatives. 1 at each coil harness and 1 at the box itself. It also has 2 power wires. Have you tried hooking up both the pink and red power wires to battery?
@kevinkeeney3295
@kevinkeeney3295 2 года назад
Yes I did just that. Got the 3 ground wires hooked up one for each coil and one for the ignition box I also have the red "power wire " hooked up with the pink ignition.. no luck still. Its a brand new ignition box. Im out of ideas

U mentioned in ur video that some gen 3 motors won't work with that msd ignition with the cam sensor being in the back correct? Could that be the possible problem?
@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher 2 года назад
No, I was talking about the Daytona Sensors Smart Spark LS. The MSD 6014 auto detects what cam sensor you are using so if its wired correctly and the cam/crank sensors work, then it should run

Question for u sir. How exactly do i retard or advanced my timing on this unit. Everyone's telling me its advanced. What exactly do i do with the daytona and how to?
@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher Год назад
The box has 9 preset tables that you can select with the dial from 1 being the least aggressive to 9 being the most aggresive which are all controlled by the map sensor. If you want to build your own timing table, you'll have to hook up a laptop and make the adjustments on your own. I have a seperate video going over how to make your own 2D timing table
@kevinkeeney3295
@kevinkeeney3295 Год назад
@NightWrencher okay that's what I figured. Do I use just one or 2 of the dials or all? And I'm assuming for the map sensor do I just hook that up to a vaccum throttle body?
@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher Год назад
The mode selection is to match crank sensor and coils to your own engine. The advance dial is set your ignition table. As for the map sensor, you would just reuse the stock one off of your stock LS efi truck intake or something similar and that would be connected to manifold vacuum below the carburetor throttle blades

@NightWrencher ok thank you I'll try dialing it in with the fi tech system I got. Not sure if it's difficult or not having a separate ignition controlled with fuel injection or not. Have u had any past experience with a setup like that?

@@NightWrencher Well I just installed my daytona sensor on my LS according to the instructions but I'm not getting a spark. Now to be honest with you I am running the Holley Sniper EFI instead of a carb but it ran fine with my MSD 6014 until I pulled it out the other day and sent it in. I've set the Mode to 0, the Advance to 5 and the RPM to 6 & 7. I also set my MAP to 1 bar and disabled everything else. Now keep in mind I am using the rear cam sensor instead of the the front. I was hoping it would run with the rear one so that I dont have to go through headache of switching to the front. Can you help me out?

Ok so try this. Wire up the SSLS red wire straight to battery, that will bypaas any issues with the ignition switch. Second thing I would do is make sure the cam sensor actually works. The MSD doesnt need the cam sensor to work but the SSLS does. Last thing is make sure you have a clean ground back to battery

@NightWrencher
@NightWrencher 3 года назад
You can use the stock one. Pull it off the truck manifold, take the rubber seal off and use a vacuum line from the base of the carb to the sensor

Still no issues with this box? I'm running an MSD. No problems yet. I'm nervous about reliability. Found a guy who will flash a stock PCM for carburetors. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XegaXLuBG5Q.html

hey man, youtube hid your comment. Still no issues, I've made a lot of power on this system. the MSD works well WHEN it works and unfortunately it might randomly go out some day but you might have gotten a good one and it actually lasts a long time.
