Re: Coil pack ignition system

[Pete and Trace]

Guys,     I have almost got part of the system ready to pass on to others.  The (first run of) 'high energy 6A, twin coil pack firing modules' will cost $75.  This includes a double sided printed circuit board, all components and a waterproof aluminium diecast box.  I will also offer pre-built and tested kits for +$10.  I can also supply twin output coil packs for $62ea. (generic VS Commodore).  All prices inc. GST, freight extra.       The module has a built in points conditioning circuit so you can test each coil firing circuit before moving on to testing the Programmable Ignition Timing (ex Jaycar Electronics).  I can also supply this kit for $60 ( its $72.95 from Jaycar stores).   *Soon to come will be the crank sensor interface circuit (makes the system distributorless) for four cylinder engines*   Regards,     Pete. ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: Pete and Trace Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 9:58 AM Subject: Re: hi, when you get a price for the kit, and when it is available let me know.                     thanks, markk ----- Original Message ----- From: Pete and Trace To: mark krawczuk Sent: Friday, December 14, 2001 9:23 PM Subject: Re: Hi Mark,     I run the factory computer and as you know the ignition is completely stand alone.  My Z18ET dizzy is shot and parts are unobtainable.  I always wanted coils packs, needed more advance and basically wanted to get that dizzy out of my engine bay.      First I built the high energy side of things.  This is basically a copy of the High Energy Ignition kit available from Jaycar Electronics except that it contains electronics to control TWO coils.  Then I installed this on the car and used the distributor module to fire one side of my HEI and thus the original coil and dizzy.  After a couple of weeks I then swapped to the other side of the HEI to check that half of the circuit.  Then I could be sure that when I connected two coil packs later down the track both would be sure to work.     Secondly I bought and built the Programmable Ignition Timing kit from Jaycar Electronics.  I installed this on the engine as outlined in the kit instructions.  This made a huge difference to performance (my dizzy had a max of 7deg advance and no vacuum advance).  But the dizzy was still being used for a trigger source and spark distribution.      Thirdly I designed and built a mount carrying a hall effect sensor and mounted it behind the front pulley.  Then I removed the front pulley drilled two holes 180deg apart and glued magnets into the holes.     Fourthly I designed and built a circuit which produces two distinct 'logic' pulse for each magnet.  I was then able two run the car off the dizzy but look at the waveform created by the hall effect sensor to check that the timing of these events were accurate.  Then I was able to design and build a circuit using a microprocessor which basically divides the output of the PIT (coil trigger) into two.ie two coils.     Fifth, now I have CRANK TRIGGERED, PROGRAMMABLE, HIGH ENERGY WASTE SPARK COIL PACK ignition system.     Now I am developing all this into a saleable kit.  I plan to be able to provide;HEI unit (my design, dual coils), Jaycar PIT, hall sensor, coil trigger unit (my design), coils packs, wiring kit and detailed instructions.   Enough for now,     Pete. ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 9:30 PM hi, I`m interested in that setup. can u email me any more info?  mark k   --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
