Hmm ill see if google can reveal anything, who dares wins hey friend has put me onto a mechanic i could possible harass over the phone for some info. What MSD CDI's are available to me, can the street-fire be wired up like the 6AL-2? ha trying to thread the needle here with the 2 days left vacating the rental.

thanks for the push in the right direction slydog! ive just done a bit of googling on them, found the MSD-6al-2 specs pdf, http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Ignitions/Street/Strip/Digital/6421_-_MSD-6AL-2_Ignition_Control.aspx one of the wiring examples is for a hall effect trigger distributor [only one with the 3 wires to dizzy i could see], is that what the xf est dizzy is?? spose the 6AL-2 would be over kill on a basically stock engine with a torker, holley and 2 1/2" extractors?? im clueless with this, prob worth me getting them to just wire it up and save on tows.

heres a pic of the xf's dizzy showing the plug if it helps anyone, no chance wiring it up unless ive got the eec??

all good clevo120y, it was fun haha i learn the things the max power way, which is the wrong way, only faster. ill see if i can swap the pump drive shafts over, can i do that by taking out the roll pins in the dizzy shaft and swap? if not cheap local tow.while i move

ha what a mess around this job was, couldnt find the flywheel bolts from the alloy head xflow, back end of it is all metric, same flywheel bolts for e series manuals, found all but one of the bolts and had to use a similar high tensile bolt. sent all day driving to wreckers to no avail, by the time we found they were the same as e series bolts the e series wreckers were closed haha, burning the candle at both ends trying to vacate this rental. its bolted up to gearbox, the extractors are on and i just need to get a gasket for the intake and hook the rest up, I put the xc fuel pump onto the newer engine too, rushing a bit, ha the engine bay is going to look like a bit of a mongrel now. the cast iron dizzy dosnt fit the alloy head block, the shaft seems a tiny bit too long, it fits in the hole but dosnt seem to seat. the xf dizzy has a port for a 3 pin plug, anyone know how i can wire that one up? might have to go find some of the wiring from a wreckers. the alloy head engine was from a 91 van with a weber and 3 speed manual if that helps anyone, the cast iron dizzy only had one wire going to it. thanks everyone for the advice hey

Cheers for that, ill swap the fuel pumps over, was going to get a new water pump and clutch fan for the engine when i give it a service, i might even have a shroud that may fit for the fan
