    Megajolt Install on L28 & 3x DCOE

    Its a 4 piece design. The L bracket, the sensor mount.... ( a picture is worth a 1000 words)

    As you can see in the picture, it is also supported off the front cover to insure rigidity at high speeds.
    Here is how I mounted my coils. COP coils from a ford expedition. The A C B groups from the EDIS are run in series.

    The engine is currently running. Have balanced the carbs and set the idle to 1000 due to my cam. Used your initial safe timing graft as a benchmark. Have to start the long tuning process now. Since the fuel delivery and timing work hand in hand to create the most efficient/powerful combustion, I am not sure where to begin. I basically have a fresh rebuilt engine with 10.3 Compression, fresh rebuilt mikuni carbs, and EDIS. I have to make all these work together without a real benchmark.

    Hey Lazeum. Thought I would show you how far I got with my setup after you and Leon convinced me to go with this EDIS setup.

     

    After evaluating your sensor bracket I thought I would take it a few steps further. Wanted to make something that was more sturdy and less likely to move/fail. Your Design is already beefy, so I used your Idea as a reference. Instead of using the bolts on the alternator side of the engine, I chose to use the AC compressor threads as mounting points. Here is what the Lead Mechanic/Machinist at Whitehead Performance built for me:

    Tony did a great job using premium stock and hardware. BTW Crank dampener and trigger wheel supplied by Rebello.

    Great CAD drawings Lazeum. I am one of the fortunate individuals with access to a Father in Law with a lathe and machining background. Hope you haven't patented this sensor mount design yet cause I am going to be a copy cat. If you would be so kind and make my life a whole lot easier, do you have the drawings for the TPS sensor bracket you fabed? Ill fedex you some good Canadian Beer:) LOL

     

    You won't be disappointed! ;)

     

    If I am Its all your fault :icon12:

    wiring a wideband

    I had the bung welded to my exhaust pipe right after the collector in a vertical orientation. O2 sensors read better and are protected by moisture when installed in this way. I'm gonna do a write up on this. Ill link it from here once I'm done the install.

    I am currently wiring up a innovate Motorsport wide band kit. It suggest you take power from a ignition switched power source, the system also draws 5amps and should also be fused for such a load. I have a 1975 280z with stock wiring harness. Where would be the best circuit to tap off of for power and where can i find it under the dash? Thank you.

    Hello Hybridz.

     

    I been searching around to find out if its possible to remove and replace gauges in a 280z with removing dash. A simple answer will help me more than the information I been able to find.

     

    Thanks
