Hello,
I am in need of some advice to my engine project which is in reassembly phase these days.
I have a 930/09 3.0 engine that is completely rebuilt and most parts are set and ready, but I am unsure on which ignition system / components that would match my setup and ambition. I have an experienced engine builder doing the work for me, but we have not settled the ignition system yet other than keeping it single plug.
In order to receive some good advice, I'll try to explain my ambition and parts setup.
- The goal is to have a fun engine that lasts and is easy to use on the street. It needs some more "go" than original, but nothing over the top. Torque, drivability and response is more important than high rpm horsepower in my world. My thought is bringing the wife and kids on shorter and longer trips in this car. No track time.
The list of the larger parts that I have collected this far is:
1. Mahle motorsport 95mm P&S 10:3,1 comp (arp rodbolts, stock crank/rods/oilpump)
2. Lightned FW and sachs sport clutch
3. Ported and polished heads to 38mm (stock valves new guides and rockers)
4. Flow matched PMO manifolds and Weber 40 IDA's
5. Web Cam S/RS-profile cams (4 journals)
6. Schrick stiffer springs & titanium retainers
7. Dilavar cylinder bolts.
8. SSi heatexhanger and dansk sport muffler (ST style)
9. All new gaskets, washers, o-rings etc
Distributor - currently its the original 3.0 SC 6700rpm which I have. Its tired and in need for an overhaul. Has vacuum clock. I am in need for advice on this subject.
CDI - Currently original, and I am in need for advice on this subject.
I have seen the offerings of classic retrofit CDI boxes, but am unsure of their performance.
Coil - Currently original, and I am in need for advice on this subject.
Sparkwires - Currently original, and I am in need for advice on this subject.
Alternator - Currently a core exchange 70A with internal regulator that needs to be overhauled. Is 70A or 90A the way to go?
Fuel - I was thinking either the Malpassi FPR or the PMO FPR. I liked the PMO one as it has dual outlet for the Weber's. Fuel pump is new but regulated by the FPR. 8mm hoses in between. Will be using 98 RON European fuel.
The engine is going into a 71 T with an RS touring theme along with an overhauled 915 gearbox.
I'm open to suggestions and good advices from those that have BTDT before, but main thought of now is to avoid dual plug. If there is something I forgot, then please be kind and remind me.
thanks in advance,
Andy
