I've been putting together my new 2+ litre engine and have been looking into flywheel fired magnetic ignition. The crank fired ignition won't work too well I guess since the front of the engine is buried in air ducting.
I am contemplating installing two of these into my flywheel to run a MSD 6AL system. There is a nice inspection hole on one half of the case that would be perfect to mount a pickup in. Anyone tried this beofre and if so any pics or suggestions? Thanks! -JR- |

Ben M. has mounted 2 or 4 magnets on his fan for his ignition.
As you saw in Marks post he has mounted his behind the fan. Dave Hunt has his trigger wheel behind the fan....the picture is of my install on a spare motor. Daves setup is up and running (both are for using the Ford EDIS parts) Marks system is an Simple Digital Fuel Systems unit. You can still mount the magnetics on the flywheel, but what system are you going to run? Someone else on the board adapted a Chevy ignition into his car, and just about anything can be adapted, the question is can you tweak the advance/retard to match your engine if you need to?
