Awesome work Daniel, it looks and sounds great!

 

[JustenGT8]

A tidy peice of work, great to see it running...how long to go until it's racing?

 

[Mr2turbo]

Really great work Daniel! Hope to see this live at "Gatebil" drifting next year...

Daniel,

I notice you're running coil on plug.

Ca you tell how you did it with the SM4 and what COP you're using?

By the way looks and sounds great. Well done.

 

[XR8tt]

Cop can still run on wasted spark ..

 

[Zuffen]

I'm hoping for a different answer!

 

[VolcoM]

It's no problem. i use LS1 coils. you just multiply the ign.cables and use it as a waste spark system. you dont need a multiplexer or anything else with these coils. and they are extremely good. many of my friends have used these coils on engine with over 1000bhp on E85..

Hope this will help you.

what do LS1 coils go for?

 

[VolcoM]

Bought them at summit for $631...

They are the same coils on some Daewoo Korean cars.. As well..
Where they MAY be cheaper..

i work on the daewoo engines every day, im taking you are talking about the 1.6 & 2.0 & 2.2L (DOHC) ignition coils. i don't recommend using the coils out of them they are known to go. my company sells 1 every couple of weeks.

 

[XR8tt]

Um ?? Yea I'm trying to find site where they tested these coils and supplied G.M part numbers..I'll be back..

We discussed LS1 coils a bit in the COP thread. They're not true COP type coils, but are CNP (Coil Near Plug) and require a standard (albeit short) secondary lead, or a very long "boot". If you did fit them with a long boot, they still don't "package" that well when you turn them in the vertical, due to their laminated iron cores interfering with the UZ's valve cover.

Here's are some photos of the LS1 by itself, with a Toyota Camry boot, then a plug with about 45mm of extender. With all this, you can just reach the plug in the UZ head, but it ain't pretty, and you still have to figure out how to mount them.

If someone were dead keen to make these into COP's, they could be "made" to work, but IMHO there are better choices out there that will work just as well and are much easier to package.

Daniel no disrespect to you & your choice of coil. These LS1 coils work great in a CNP (Coil Near Plug) application like you're doing.

 

[XR8tt]

Yes you are right..
Here's some tech and tests on G.M coils...

[cribbj]

Cool video! Now I know what sort of test setup I want to build.

 

[VolcoM]

The coils i use are from MSD and it is upgrade coils for LS1.
It is no problem with long plug kables on these coils. i think my cables are about 75cm each.

here is a pic of the coils. these are placed inside the car.. on top of the gearbox tunnel.
