Hei conversion from pints need help... what am I doing wrong.
Is the HEI for certain grounded through a mounting bolt and IT MUST BE MOUNTED in order to heat sink or you will burn it up. The bottom is the sink.
Check the dist. for the required reluctor gap using a brass feeler. Put your meter on the dist pickup leads and crank the engine. With the meter on low AC volts, it should generate about 1V AC. Here is a diagram "I think" Trailbeast built but it is simple, easy to follow, and will allow you to check your work.
NOTE the way that the dist. pin hookup is drawn. This is the required polarity to get rotor phase correct. Regardless of that pickup polarity, spinning the dist should generate sparks
