Sorry, not yet. All boards are currently assembled. Right now, I am cutting the boards, putting them in their boxes, and testing. I will get them boxed up and ready to go. I will ship whatever I have done on Monday. I will ship more on Tues., Weds., etc. until all are shipped. I will let eveyone know individually when theirs ships. Thanks for being patient, guys. I am doing my best to get them out.

I have a few circuits complete. I have pm'ed those people. These, along with several other circuits, will ship out tomorrow. Here are a couple pics of the final product:

looks awesome.. i cant wait!

 

Now i'm going to have to start thinking about hooking it up...

Thanks kent for putting these together again!

Alvin

 

Thanks, guys. They are coming along. I suppose that I'll let you guys provide rings terminals, bullet terminals, etc. to hook it up. I could provide them, but there are so many possibilities of wiring it up. I think it is best to let you guys do it the way that you feel is best. I'll post up some install instructions and recommendations for terminal/connectors.

Kent

 

that would be cool.. as of right now i have NO idea how to wire it all up

 

Looking great, Kent! I simply can't wait to get my hands on this thing.

I had better dig out the soldering iron and find a spot to mount that beast of a coil...

 

Forget soldering iron... Soldering TORCH is where it's at

I've gotta figure out how to re-mark my main pulley for timing marks! Mine have somehow rubbed off / dissapeared over the years. Despite everyone yelling "they're engraved into the pulley" at me, I still have yet to be able to find them.

I remember someone saying that the 12a had the only main pulley that could be put on any of the 4 ways, so if you remove it you can never be sure about putting it back.

Anyhow... I'm gonna go search up that info... I can't wait to get this all setup It'll be forkin' great!

I think once I'm running Direct Fire on my leadings, I'm gonna switch to BR8EIX plugs. The second gen guys are runnin' them, and they're made for direct fire... and they're iridium! Might work, you never know.

Hey guys. I shipped out a dozen circuits yesterday. I will ship a few more today (not quite as many). A couple circuits became available, so Rx Seven and ratboy are able to get one. I'll pm you guys just incase you don't check the thread. speckamp: Yours should be in today's shipment.

Jon: yes, the pulley can go on 4 ways. I had to fight that when I did the rebuild on my SE. The later engines ('86 on, I think) had one hole offset so it would only go on one way. Good luck getting it marked. You could try to get an RB pulley. They have degree marks on them, but I know shipping, currency conversion, and duty makes things awful expensive for you guys.

I will put up some instructions ASAP. It will probably after I get all the circuits shipped as that is the priority right now.

PM sent with paypal following shortly.
Thanks again!

 

What if I wanna just buy a board and build it myself? Do you have that option?

The kit looks awesome, btw..

 

Currently, not. I have just been doing assembled units. Since creation of the board is the greatest effort, a kit or plain board would have to be nearly as expensive as the built unit. Once the board is built, the rest of the assembly is pretty easy. If we do another group of boards, they may be just the board and you provide parts (like the MS setup) or we could do a kit. We could also have a couple forum members make assembled boards for those who wanted them that way. It is still open to suggestions.

Kent

 

I look forward to getting one.

 

New unit showed up today, thanks Kent! Installation was a breeze, no surprises at all except that the wire colors have changed. I'll update the installation diagram later tonight and get it posted, along with the installation instructions. Kent's pretty busy building the new units, so I'll try to help out a bit.

Kent- I have to say you nailed it man. Best of both worlds, I get to have that strong idle and still keep the high rpm strength too. This is so sweet!

 

Okay, here's a new diagram for installing the new version. I'll let Kent know that its here, so he can check it for errors. Here is the text version that I got from Kent:

short red wire - 12v
short black wire - GND
blue wire - output to coil (connects to red wire on 2nd gen coil)
long red wire - B terminal for J-109 (lower (vertical) terminal)

yellow wire - C terminal for J-109 (upper (horizontal) terminal)

When you connect it up and power it, the green LED should be on and the red LED off. They alternate flashing.

 

Looks good, Ken. The guys that got it with the connector (almost everyone) won't even have to worry about the yellow and red wires for the ignitor. Just power, ground and output to coil (and the coil power and grounding, of course).

The wire colors changes becuase before I stole some of the wire from an old harness I had. Didn't have enough wire that way for this many units, so I had to go with what I could buy. I acually need to pick up some more wire. I have gone through 50' black and nearly 150' of red so far. Probably a couple of 50' spools should be enough to finish up the remaining circuits.

Glad you like the setup. Hope that it continues to work great for you. Maybe we should pull up the other thread for people to discuss the installation and impressions.

Going to ship another 10 or so units today.

Kent

 

Sweet, I just got mine in the mail, I think i'm going to go pick up a new 2nd gen coil tomorrow and hook this up! can't wait!!

Alvin

 

Well, the drive into work has confirmed it. This system rocks! I was running on the fixed p/w before, and now the car starts and idles much easier. Best of all, I still get the power on the top end. I can't think of any modification that has such a high results to cost ratio. There will definitely continue to be a demand for these units after Kent is in France, so I really hope that somebody will be able to pick up the torch and keep building these boxes. Very nice work Kent!

 

I ended up just shipping 7 out today because my internet was acting up and I couldn't get to the other addresses. I will pm those that I shipped out.

I fly out on Tues. I will get the remaining circuits built and shipped tomorrow and Monday. I will be staying in Paris a few days and then Avignon for aniother few days. The hotels should have internet access, so I should be able to get online to answer any questions you may have.

Kent

 

Thanks Kent... Just got mine today! Yeeha

 

well i have always been interested in this set up and plan to install the 2nd gen coild set up on my car, but is the transitor trick still available? if so, cost, where do i send the cash and how do i hook this baby up? thanks

 

PM Kent... not sure how many he has left, but you could build it yourself if need be from the info in this thread. The price was $25 with no connectors and $30 or $35 with the connectors.

Kentetsu posted a set of directions ju up above.

 

Kent ,
Received the magic box today , now watting on coil I sent for hope to get it on soon.

thanks for all the effort you did on this. ( YOUR THE MAN )

 

Glad to see you guys are getting the circuits okay. Hope they work well for all of you. aws140: I sent you a pm about the circuit. I will be doing the final batch tomorrow night and monday morning. I figure I need to build about 10 more to cover eveyone. For the guys that haven't sent payment, please do tomorrow if you can. I may have limited internet access the next few days, so I need to know I have the payment/address to send out your circuits.

Thanks for all the appreciation, guys. We will figure out what we will do in the future for more circuits.

Hey guys, Kent is like the energizer bunny he keeps going and going .....
