Nismo280zEd Posted August 29, 2003 Author Share Posted August 29, 2003 who said anything about an L6 in a 911? I just need to replace the molten plastic blob that used to be my OEM distributor on my 78 280z. -Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 The later 280ZX style has the module bolted to the side of the dizzy, which some people dislike but I prefer. The modules are expensive to replace but I never had one go bad before I used MSD by itself, and I've got 3 spares that I picked up for next to nothing. If you don't want to use that module you can run MSD or something similar. The benefit of this distributor is the trigger wheel has 6 prongs, and the stator has 6 prongs. All 6 have to line up for a spark to occur, should theortetically be more accurate than the 280Z unit. If you get one from a junkyard here's a link to a page that discusses checking bushings and replacing if necessary. This helped me out a lot and JD was very cool to me, so I keep posting the link on this forum from time to time. http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~jrdemers/280ZX/distributor/distributor.html Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nismo280zEd Posted September 1, 2003 Author Share Posted September 1, 2003 Ok, so whose better? Crane... or MSD..? for an EFI based car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zline Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 they're all basically the same. HI-6 is cool 6AL has way more options though, so i'd take that. DLI is cool but not worth it IMHO you could always convert to GM HEI if you wanted =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
