The grid is as benign as your MSD 7 box. Yes you can program timing curves.

Now if it has the ARC Module attached it can use timing retard to save a run by following a rpm trace.

That ARC Module or the previous use of that box, within a set period of time can be detected by the tester that you mention. Every DD was given one.

But, you can loan them yours if you wish. MSD Part number 89973.

I think that people are giving these components a lot more credit than they deserve.

Nothing is impossible. With the right amount of money and time I am sure anything can be compromised. We work hard to give NHRA the tools to ensure that our products haven't been modified.
