thats a coil :thumb:

[let_nova]

you need the ignition module which is the same plug as where the coil would be....

[bmw156]

ok wicked. thanks, now i just need to find one lol

[bmw156]

you need the ignition module which is the same plug as where the coil would be....

is this ign module the thing in the pic above on the end of the exhaust cam?

whats the name of the "black" boxthe leads plug into...

many thanks guys

[Benn]

No,

Right the ign module is a small black bit of plastic about 2inch long, on a L shape bi of metal (two bolt holes each end)

The bit on the end where the dizzy would be is the cam end black and it has the cam sensor in it.

[bmw156]

also, just seen the post benn posted in about some small black box on an angle bracket, lol i have one of these, where does it go lol :>

[16v Nova Kev]

black box is your coil pack

[Benn]

It plugs in on the end of the loom, will be a 4pin flat plug.

[bmw156]

ok cool, so it needs 3 parts, the end cap with cam sensor in.

the coil pack, which sits on the other end of the other cam,

and then the small L bracket with the black box, and i have this lol

[16v Nova Kev]

bingo lol

[Benn]

There is a bracket that the coilpack bolts on too, that then bolts to the side of the head.

[Benn]

Which looks like this...

[bmw156]

thanks alot benn, i will make sure i get these parts when buying them. plus rep all round

[Benn]

Cool cool.

[16v Nova Kev]

just make sure you use a head with coil pack cams in it iirc they are a bit shorter than dizzy ones. i think

[let_nova]

edit: he cant find it lol

[bmw156]

ok, i think i have all dizzy ones and a LET one, they fit and turn over freely. but yeh i will buy a set befor the engine goes live lol

[bmw156]

if you need a module pm benn lol

i have one ( i think)

where does that bolt to. engine or car lol

[let_nova]

car. looks like the t peice under the coil.

[16v Nova Kev]

what you going to do with the engine std/bike carbs/webbers/throttle bodies

[bmw156]

what you going to do with the engine std/bike carbs/webbers/throttle bodies

im unsure yet....

i might go twin 40's which i know means i need either the dizzyt set up, or aftermarket maybe

thought about TB as i have heard good things. again which means aftermarket coilpack and management but high costs.

or standard.

im not sure yet lol i think i will cross that bridge when i come to it.

[16v Nova Kev]

if i had the choice i would go for dizzy and carbs easy. mine has short cams so really need to fit boddies:( jusk asked so you could plan ahead :cool:

[let_nova]

45 are good for the xe. 40s are nearly at there limit

[let_nova]

thanks alot benn, i will make sure i get these parts when buying them. plus rep all round

did i say something?lol

[16v Nova Kev]

or be proper bo and go for 48s:p
