Yeah, no mopar. But if I get over-ruled by the masses, Im good with that. But when I went to order that reluctor, it was 30 days out. Made me think we should have a plan B reluctor setup in case these parts are getting harder to find.
You guys bring up a good question though. Is the ECS of this vintage that Jason is using smart enough to set the timing? Eliminating the need for vac advance? What other features are possible? (rev limiting, etc).
Jason's setup is great, but if we think about producing them for others who want it I would suggest the following changes.
1) Make the reluctor fit over the distributor lobes and from the top. Makes installing as easy as pull the rotor, push the reluctor into place, install the rotor. Maybe a set screw inside one of the cavities to hold it in place. (or two) That would also make it preset.
2) Make the bracket for the pick-ups more friendly to install. Just pull the points and condenser and drop the new pick-ups in. Place in the center of the adjustment lobe and follow the enclosed instructions.
I love what he did already, but when you think of others who want this setup and the varied skill levels, why not make it so the same guy who is thinking about a Pertronix module can install it himself?
