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- |

Well if Mark thinks his is a hack he'd crap if he saw mine! Yep, as Mueller said, I mounted my magnets in the lip of the fan pulley and put my sensor on the outside of the cast aluminum fan shroud (dead center bottom). It's real easy to adjust from under the car. Hacky as it is it works great. Engine idles much more smoothly than when I was using an optical in the distributor and I have more confidence in the timing accuracy at redline because the bounce and wander is gone.
