2.0 liter twin plug is here at SUPERTEC

Henry Schmidt · Henry Schmidt's Garage

For all of you who have been waiting, it's done.
Supertec with the help of Aaron "Big Truck" Burnham (AKA BrurnBros) has developed a twin plug distributor for early aluminum case 2.0 liter engine and 2.0-2.2 mag cases. Note the bearing below the rotor (as in the factory twin plug dist.) for addition rotor support. No other after market twin plug distributor offer this kind of quality.
The engine pictured is a 2.7 twin plug going in a '67 soft window "S".
They are trick and they are pricey.

Call and we'll talk.

What can you do for a guy with a 3.4 based on a 3.2 for twin plugging?

Cheers

Henry Schmidt · Henry Schmidt's Garage

That's easy. 3 liter turbo distributor recurved for non turbo.
Call and we'll build one for you.

Nice work!

Jeff Alton · 12-21-2005, 07:17 PM

Okay, can you PM me or email me with some prices? Motor is a 3.4 with 10.5cr and cam is still up in the air.

Cheers

I'm confused, will it fit 2.0 - 2.7L or is it just for the 2-2.2L.
and please pm me on the price.
thanks Henry, great work

Yes.
Some can even be built with a vacuum advance for turbo applications.

Nice - I'll PM for details soon!

I'll assume that since you didn't mention price in this thread, unlike when the later version was announced that this unit is significantly more expensive. If it is pricier than the later unit (which I think is a pretty darned good value) I'll be looking elswhere for solutions. Why the guessing game? Being this coy with prices strikes me as odd when running a for profit business.

That is beautiful. Very very nice work. Where are those distributor caps available from for it?

Henry can you PM me a price for a 2.0L twin plug. It would be great on my next long stroke 2.5L

STOP, GUESSING GAME? PLEASE..... ASSUME YOU DON'T HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION.

This distributor is a new product with a new design and we're just not sure what it will cost. There is no sinister motive here.
This is an attempt to gauge the market. The more we produce the cheaper it gets. If no one responds possitively then we will produce a smaller run and in turn the product will be more expensive.
When I have a grasp on a price where we make a fair profit and the customer gets a fair price, I'll post it.

Jeff Alton · 12-28-2005, 02:08 PM

In Henry's defense, he promptly emailed me with a price as per my request.

Cheers

My apologies, I misunderstood the intent; the request just seemed so cryptic. I did give my response to the price debate though: $1200 - $1500 (like the late case version) and I would buy one.
