Omg yes. I've literally paused the video while he's bolting on those stupid fingers just to post this exact same thing. One bar across. You could even CNC it out all fancy if you wanted... Send cut send. Etc. And then the coil packs would just bolt to them. Also a nice ring underneath each one would be a good idea while you're at it so that there's less junk that gets in the spark plug hole there since it's not going to be sealed off in this motor is low and next to the ground

Also for AC… I would look into converting to electric AC (if budget allows)… the AC on these old cars is almost worthless. With electric you’ll get a colder cabin and not have the power loss. It is kind of a pain to convert it though, but seeing you already have the car torn apart it’s a good time to tackle it.

Read a little more into Twin Spark Jimmy, it's actually quite useful technology. The fact that you can control them far better than the old distributor tech that was on there makes it even more interesting, I'd be interested to see what finetuning that secondary spark on the dyno can do. Turn off those secondaries along the way in the name of science and I'm sure you can notice the difference.

The purpose of twin spark was to help achieve better fuel economy but it had some other advantages as well. It was actually a pretty popular mod people did to older 911's to help prevent detonation and pinging caused by poor fuel quality. I personally love the twin spark on my 964's but hey to each their own!
@Zimmernld Жыл бұрын
When Alfa Romeo started to use Twin Spark technology on their race engines (as early as 1914) it was purely for performance though, it wasn't until a lot later that they started to use it for emission control. I have it in my 75 and it adds a lot of complexity, but it's producing more power than it should for what's basicly a 4 cilinder designed in the 60's.

@robertgruen2088 Жыл бұрын
That's not entirely accurate. The reason for the dual spark was a way to combat uneven flame front propagation. Because the two valves are very large the spark plug is way over to one side of the bore. Because it takes a finite amount of time for the burn to occur the ignition timing advance had to start at a lower RPM, which gives up torque lower in the RPM range. The issue was made worse if you ran high compression pistons as they had a wedge on their crown that would sort of cut off the flame front. The solution on the race cars was simple, put a second set of spark plugs and a fancy 12 spot dizzy (which have become as rare as hen's teeth and very expensive). When it came time to squeeze every last drop of performance out of the last generation air cooled engine, Porsche finally decided to dual plug from the factory but instead of one massive dizzy they did two small ones and a belt drive. 911chips.com sells a kit that I've been eyeing that mods a 3.2 Motec to run the Bosch twin coils, it also remaps the advance curve to be a lot closer to the 993 curve.
