Yep, ages ago.
The sensor disc/plate needs modifying/replacing. It is incorrect.
Thought that was what you were referring to when asking how I went with them..
Yes you mentioned that you thought they may need some modifying but you were still to confirm.
Is it much of a modification?
Do they otherwise seem like they are of high quality?
If they had the correct timing disc, then they appear to be the highest quality I have seen, online or real.
Think I should use the factory timing disc off the spare set I was given, and fabricate an adapter to bolt it up.
If I do this, I will have a couple adapters/timing discs made for if anyone buys these can gears in future.
They would be pretty cheap little pieces to make.
Last couple days been sorting out gear linkage brackets, fairly happy with it, will be making a couple little changes tomorrow, and if happy with that, then I can start sourcing or fabricating the linkage rods..
The RPW headers gave clearance issues due to limited space in the engine bay.
Less room than this motor's normal habitat..
Necessitating custom headers to be fabricated to clear everything..
Getting there..
very well done indeed. Out of interest did you just buy linkages for gears or get them milled up? Asking as I seem to keep melting the grease in my cables. About to install third set with exhaust wrap on manifolds and thermal protection around new cables but if this fails will be making up set like yours
Headers are stainless.
Gear linkages are necessary as I'm sure you've figured, the motor now resides in the opposite end of the car than it usually would..
These linkages (there are four) link the end of the stock Elise shift cables to the shift arms on the FTO box.
The linkages (that you see) were an eBay purchase, and are actually tie rod ends for racing go karts.
The main crank pulley, I am sure, is single piece..
