Re: BennVenn's VW Delco Conversion
I agree. Using a dizy especially on these engines where there is lash from the dizy to the drive dog to the dizy drive shaft to the cam and finally the crank gear.
This results in ignition scatter and far from ideal precision timing.

Re: BennVenn's VW Delco Conversion
The ballancer is alluminium so not suitable for a vr sensor. I've got a trigger wheel and was going to fit an edis module but there doesn't seem any reason to now.
If my design doesn't work out I'll order one of those D1927A's

Re: BennVenn's VW Delco Conversion
I measured the movement at 10 crank degrees between rotor and crank. That is pretty sloppy! No doubt that would decrease with a warm engine plus with no dizzy cam lobes it should be fairly stable.

Standard 6.3mm spade connector works fine for powerantus wrote: the 6 cyl connector looks to be available now from here: https://www.eficonnection.com/eficonnec ... ItemId=292 and the 3 pin here: https://www.eficonnection.com/eficonnec ... ItemId=564 still cant find the power one, though.
With an aluminium balancer you could just drill and tap some holes, and locktite steel grub screws in for the 'teeth'.

Re: BennVenn's VW Delco Conversion
Not a ballancer, just a pulley.
If I was to go that route I'd bolt 2 steel plates to the pulley to simulate the camira reluctor setup with a small cam phase sensor where the dizzy was.
It's not too late I suppose. Much to consider.

Re: BennVenn's VW Delco Conversion
balancer lol.
VW don't even have counter weights on the crank. 1600cc are prone to breaking the crank in half due to vibrations. Formula vee guys hate the 1600 for this as the old 1200 cc series of formula vee they didn't suffer the vibrations as much and didn't just explode like the 1600 did at certain rpms.

totally un-related but my wife said your photo of the dizzy on the previous page is very arty
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!
