Currently D-Jet owners are limited to using the stock distributor which besides being 30 years old, does not have an easy method of changing the timing curve for those that want to optimize thier ignition.

For those that have been on the board for a while, I made an optical circuit that fit inside an aftermarket Mallory billet distributor (I'm sure it's work just as well in a billet MSD distributor)

Our (Fiid and I) new design has no moving parts, just 1 wire to the coil with the other 3 wires pluging into the factory engine harness to bypass the mechanical points inside the D-Jet distributor.

Ideally for testing purposes keeping the stock distributor with the trigger points intact would be a good idea in case a problem did occur with the prototype unit and you could just unplug our modual and hookup the factory connectors easily.

Mike,

As to "how long it will last" I was referring to the length of the testing period.


Is this item something you plan on providing to members if it works according to plan?

Will the "testor" be entitled to the first ones off the line when production commences? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

sorry...the test person will get to keep, sell or throw away the unit if they wish to (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif)


yes, these will be available to members here as well as there might be a small market for the Mercedes and Volvo people as well as Type III guys I think .....

I don't see a huge market at all, but a few extra bucks for gas money would be nice......

gotta hit the road, feel free to call me on my cell if you want...
