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- |

Believe me I thought about almost every way to mount my sensor.
The opening in the shroud for the fan is smaller than the fan itself. To mount it to the fan you would have to cut out a slot on the rim of the fan opening (the shiny part were my sensor is mounted) on the shroud. You have to set an air gap, making most other areas on the shroud/fan pretty well imposable to get at for this. The flywheel has the same problem...you can do it (not with SDS) but it's damn near imposable to set your air gap. The trigger disc set-up was the only way I could over come this problem. Like I said next time I'll use a 911 pulley for the trigger disc. It bolts right on, but you would have to cut the back of the fan hub mating surface down something like .050 |
