[tortuga]

So I’ve installed a Daytona sensors spark control box in place of the old msd 6al...the new box has the capability of programming the advance curve rather than relying on centrifugal weights and springs to determine advance vs rpm.

The distributor is now locked with an adjustable rotor to set phasing...done with a cap with a big hole net to #1 cap stud.

Kind of interesting, the timing is set at 34 on the crank above where total advance comes in, and then box actually retards max to 32, then more below 2800 to an initial of 18 at idle.

I’d like to take the next step and use a trigger wheel on the crank to provide the trigger signal. I’d like to do this in the interest of precision and actually reliability (seeing as the guts of the msd dizz are prone to issues). Once this is done, all the guts of the dizz can be removed, all it does now is route the coil pulses to the individual cap studs.

QUESTION: has anyone done this? How does the alternator mount along with the thrigger transducer bracket?

Thanks
