I know its not ground breaking stuff (got all my info from mrriggs on this thread)

Thought I would post my progress for my HEI ignition anyway. I ran the TCI for a good 3 years then it burned up and I burned another TCI couple months after that. I like the Powerdynamo set up but the idea of getting parts overseas seemed like a possible downside. I take this bike on longer trips so I like the idea of car parts availability.
(...any of you powerdynamo guys know if the stator is replaceable with an OEM of some bike? Or is it exclusively Powerdynamo?)
back to it
Here are some pictures:
I soldered the connections together so i can use the coil pack as a connector/coil mount
Carved the bracket out of some 2" angle with the grinder. Then drilled and tapped the mounting holes with M6x1.0
Welded it on the bike and painted
mock up of the coil under the tank
