    TCI Replacement 2020 It Works

    Funny thing. I have seen gifs since the Compuserve days but until today hadn't seen the need to create one . I want to be able to do it local not the "Cloud" If a picture is worth a thousand words then a gif should be worth 3-4 thousand. Precision machine tolerances only here at Eaglesnest...

    I don't know if the 650 is similar to the xj700 but the xj pickups work with the gonzo. Will require 2 Gonzo boxes.

    The reluctor is plain steel, no magnetic field to them. The mopar pickup has the highest peak to peak output of all the pickups I have measured. Very happy to see it sparking at kick starting speeds on the the cam which turns half as fast as the crank.

    Help with front end swap

    Or you could swap the xl250 triple tree with a 34mm tree. Allballs is a treasure trove of info. Some years of xt500 had small tubes

    I've avoided hall effect sensors because they are a silicon device. Mounting one on the side of the hottest part of the engine right in the path of heat from the exhaust seems sketchy to me.. Ingrid, my Volvo 745 drove me batty with random engine shutoffs driving down the road for over a...

    That is correct. The HEI will require the original advance unit. I'm using the HEI to get a feel for it's signal levels etc because I've not played with one before and it was less then $10 . The cool thing about the HEI is it will work with the stock points. I have a late model Gonzo box...

    I'm pretty sure the advance is set by the frequency of the pulses and not the width. Hope to confirm this soon. Next step after getting this thing secured to the bike is put some gas in and see what it does.

    Haven't had much of a chance to work on the Gonzo. Made a 500 mile trip to Houston and back on Saturday and Sunday. Wow things have changed out there on the super slab. Yesterday I rigged up the Mopar pickup and v8 reluctor to a GM HEI. Result "Sparkulation. :) The gap is closer to .125...

    Wasted spark. Ether a TCI style dual outlet coil or the points coils in parallel. I prefer the the Honda cb750 style dual output coil myself. One thing I like about this mod using the Mopar pickup is that the Mopar electronic ignition first appeared on a 1973 340 hotrod engine setup so it is...
