ok, with getting the new engine soon... i am looking at ignition systems...
I had/ have a pertronix ignitor in the 1.7...it worked great. but I'm thinking for the new engine, I would like a pointless system that has a rev limiter(I tend to be too rough/over rev) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) and that would maybe get some added performance(ie multiple or larger spark) I thought of the Crane Xr 3000(or xr 700) with an lx91 coil... has anyone used this? pertronix also has a setup that is a reasonable price(important factor) and of course, there is always MSD, compufire, etc. I have a stock 1.7 distributor, a distributor that has yet to be identified on the 1.8possibly a bosh 009... and the engine will come with a bosch 050. I would like to use 1 of these distributors... which distributor/coil/ignition system are you running? what do you suggest? |

good points Dave.. making sure the points stay gone are my main concern... #2 is a revlimiterI'm not expecting my hp to double on a 2056 just by changing the ignition...
I will probably get the either get a crane(xr 3000), or just be careful(with a pertronix) for a while until I do get a rev limiting device... and save some money and get a mallory later... that's the only thing I've heard anyone say that it added any performance. |
