Re: Making the Cologne 2.9 Distributor-less using 4L OHV parts
There was machining required, as mentioned in the linked old post you sent me from TF. I machined the pulley down and left like 1/8" of material around the rubber damper. I machined just as deep as the trigger wheel was thick. Then I machined the wheel to just under that diameter for a press-fi...

Re: Making the Cologne 2.9 Distributor-less using 4L OHV parts
I'm trying to remember where I got the trigger wheel I mounted on the pulley for when I was messing with this in my old Scorpio. I'll try and dig up my notes. It was a OE part of some sort

Re: Scorpio V2.0 has arrived : )
Busy as usual with everything else BUT working on this. Last week I sat down and put togther a checklist of what needs to be done to get this finished. Ugh. To that end, I finished up the manifold I started a while back. All it needs is to be coated. http://www.turbochuck.com/webimages/projects/Scor...

Yes, just pipe L's. The eventual plan is to have a turbo mounted over on the pass side, and the driver side will just feed into a crossover pipe to the turbo. No need for fancy equal-length headers here.xR4rally wrote:Very cool. Are those pipe Ls?

Re: Scorpio V2.0 has arrived : )
Messed with it a bit more yesterday evening. Found out that my existing (stock) alternator belt is just ling enough to work with the new set-up, so that's good.
