    Coils - use the valve cover spacers, add a thick bar (alum or steel) to tie the spacer together...drill and tap bar to use the coil mounting hole

      @travisfabel8040 11 місяців тому +1

      Omg yes. I've literally paused the video while he's bolting on those stupid fingers just to post this exact same thing.
      One bar across. You could even CNC it out all fancy if you wanted... Send cut send. Etc.
      And then the coil packs would just bolt to them.
      Also a nice ring underneath each one would be a good idea while you're at it so that there's less junk that gets in the spark plug hole there since it's not going to be sealed off in this motor is low and next to the ground

  • @cjsawinski
    @cjsawinski Рік тому +5

    Also for AC… I would look into converting to electric AC (if budget allows)… the AC on these old cars is almost worthless. With electric you’ll get a colder cabin and not have the power loss. It is kind of a pain to convert it though, but seeing you already have the car torn apart it’s a good time to tackle it.

    Read a little more into Twin Spark Jimmy, it's actually quite useful technology. The fact that you can control them far better than the old distributor tech that was on there makes it even more interesting, I'd be interested to see what finetuning that secondary spark on the dyno can do. Turn off those secondaries along the way in the name of science and I'm sure you can notice the difference.

    It’s so funny. I’m an aircooled beetle guy and it’s all pretty much the same problems and jank that the beetles have but massively more expensive. I really don’t want to know what he paid for the oem fan shroud. And you can buy brand new engine tins or used tins for a beetle for a few bucks. It’s really interesting to watch these videos from this perspective

    Have Master Spoon weld an aluminum bracket that cover all 3 coils with tabs that branch down to the bolt holes that you are already using. But repeat it 4 times and mark them where they go on the engine. Similar to what DW fuel rail that you got for the LS with out the fuel.
