    Running issues!!

    I found that the junction between ballast wire and normal wire was deep in the loom, behind the passenger glove box. Rather than cut in that awkward place I just took a new line from the ignition switch to the coil. Your experience may vary. I'm also thinking I might put the coil on a relay to...

    P6B Cylinder heads

    You're right, it's just dreams at this point :)

    P6B Cylinder heads

    So quick question - would putting pre 94 heads on a post 94 engine be possible? Would the larger chambers lower compression to 'boost friendly' levels? Although I see there's a 8.13:1 - that should be low enough right?

    P6B Cylinder heads

    And that's why I love this place. Such a depth of knowledge. So would P38 heads bolt to a P6 block?

    P6B Cylinder heads

    It's what I've heard too....are SD1 and P38 heads the same? The book I was reading recommended the P38 as the best 'out-of-the-box'. Might be cheaper, too. :)

    Ok heathens (ie downdraft users), show me some pics!

    Cool that's what I'm chasing! That's more elegant than my design so thanks for posting! I often get called a heathen on other sites for straying away from SUs. Just meant as a laugh, if anyone gets offended they're not the kind of person I'd enjoy chatting to anyways :)

    Hi Guys/Gals. I have gone to the dark side and put a holley on my 3.5, in my P6. I'm not happy with the complicated throttle linkage set-up that came with the bits I used. Can you other 'heathens' show me some pics of the elegant linkage/cable set-ups you have? At the moment I'm thinking I'll...

    taco stopped working

    It'll be different now with the electronic dizzy - might have to ask the manufacturer....

    suddenly a rough running engine

    Glad to hear there's progress! I would assume the static advance is the same (8deg)? Hoping to do mine tonight - if jobs are slow enough to let me do it in the work car-park lol.

    Any Aussies have this bracket for sale...?

    I'm near Caboolture, QLD AUS. I'm looking for a spare to convert to a throttle linkage for a Holley set-up. Auto car.

    Recommendations for electronic ignition Distributor?

    When I got the set-up (second hand) I got 2 spares :)

    Part #24. Disregard the rubber mounts. Just chasing the mounting bracket, which bolts to the passenger side of the engine. There should be one in Australia, surely. :) Cheers, Rob.

    11 AC Lucus Alternator

    Ignition off, no voltage at W1, W2 or C2. 12v+ at C1, on the battery post of the alternator and on both F+ and B on the alternator - no voltage on the upper tang which normally gives 6v when running (W?). 12v+ at both terminals of the regulator. It has to be coming through the ignition switch...

    11 AC Lucus Alternator

    Yeah that's what I had.... Hmm. I'm starting to think I have a short in the relay trigger wire (W1) somewhere....I recently installed a new ignition - I wonder if there's a leak in there that is giving the 6RA just enough to latch on and drain....but then why would the relay sometimes not fire...
