i still dont know what he uses for ignition. even if the distributor wasn't a 'dummy' it still would not be able to fire a 20B, the 20B distributors are much diffrent than those. the car has no efi, but what the **** does he use for spark?

i think they put an extra pick up in the dixxy, so it has one pickup for each rotor, and the l & t are fired with no split

I hear he runs the FC's leading coils but not 100% on this.What do you use on yours mike?

yeah, but the plug wires comming from the distributor arent going anywhere!, they double back to the dist........



WTF?

distributor relocation kit??

j9fd3s 01-26-2003 05:09 PM

haha, they are just there for show, theres prolly no rotor



mike

i agree that they're just there for show, but if thats the case then what the hell is he using for an ignition signal? how does he fire the plugs??



i'm stumped..

the 1st gen dizzys have 2 pickups, one for leading and one for trailing. you can add a 3rd pickup or change the cap like racing beat

The hitmans three rotor uses 6 FC coils stacked up and run direct fire to the plugs.I wonder if Jesus uses a similar design?

ah i c, that would make sense if he actually had the plug wires hooked up, but if you look at the pic the wires loop back onto the distributor cap!



there is no spark going from that cap to any plugs
