I did this on my '74 Duster with the 225 slant. Had to use a relay to provide full voltage and current to the HEI controller, but it was beautifully reliable once I did and I never had a problem afterwards. Sad my wife at the time (note: at the time) convinced me to sell the car. I miss that green beast.
You're also right that it can even be used for Toyota systems, BUT, only in pre fuel injection systems. Toyota's fuel injection relies on a "confirmation" signal via an IGF lead that gets pulled to ground via a transistor every time the coil fires as a safety that will shut down the engine if doesn't get that confirmation, thinking that there's an ignition failure. It's recently become a viable solution on FJ60 and earlier Land Cruisers that lack the fuel injection (due to OEM Toyota igniters being long discontinued) and has been shown to work very well.
Very interesting, good to know! Thank you!
This conversion is pretty awesome! Seems like a magic trick though because I still haven't been able to get mine to work...
I have my little HEI coil set up stashed away from when I need to get a random motor started up. Works pretty good!
I'm sorry I was joking. No, seriously I'm a Ford guy & I know of a lot of Mopar guys who tow a horse trailer around so when the Mopar breaks down the horse can tow them home. They never got stranded once, really.
That's clever, tow a horse trailer incase the car breaks down & then the horse can tow the car.
Never heard of that but something like that did happen when I was towing an empty flatbed trailer and the truck broke down! 🤣
Parts list for small block Dodge:
Pertronix HEI 3 because it is RPM adjustable
Pertronix Flame Thrower HC E-Coil P/N 60103 (60,000 volts 0.32 OHMs)
CH04 Distributor
Taylor 8MM wires
Plugs as per application (turbo, NO2, supercharged, blown or NA) Start gap at 0.35 and work the gap larger in steps till you get poor performance. Then close the gap back to previous setting.
I just did a lot of leg work for you all.
10 degree initial timing to 36 total you should be good to go.
I'll be looking into it!
@@NightWrencher Just got it all finished today. Tomorrow I am doing timing and plug gaps. So far its is a very smooth running system. The HEI dizzys are too big. Can't really do much with timing since its either firewall or manifold they run into. Parts off Amazon. Under $60 for the dizzy, $147 for the e-coil and rev limit adjustable hei 3
After that is what wires you like and the plugs for your engines induction.
If you don't want to spend the extra coin the e-coils and HEI moduals are easy to find in the junk yard.
Design2drive.com sells the plate for $25.00 shipped to mount the hei under the stock dizzy. Eliminates the ballast and its one wire when all is said and done other than the wires to the coil and dizzy to HEI.
I tried the proform dizzy and they suck, the huge HEI cheby takes up too much space. Also mine would sputter around 2,300RPM.
My opinion the only improvement would be a blueprinted electronic dizzy.
My RamCharger is a happy RC.
I'm picking up ecoils from the junkyard. GM and toyota used them in their 90s trucks.
Got a quick question why can’t you use the igniter that comes with that coil when you look on eBay most coils come with the igniter … again maybe you mentioned it and I missed it … thanks
Be because the stock ignitor used the toyota computer to know if its ok to wite. If it doesnt see the right signals. It wont work. An HEI module is more flexible when it comes to signal and can work on basically any distributor.
Next time leave out the soldering lesson. Most guys already know this stuff and those who don't can use crimped fittings!!!!##
Yeah, I know, my older videos used to drag out way too long. Gonna be redoing this video in the near future because I gotta build a new coil for my charger.
I disagree. Leave in the soldering lesson. That is how we learn, by watching those who know. It's possible that someone watching your video may just be learning how. Terrence can always skip that part if he is bored.
I think you have a Misconception about soldering..., "MORE IS BETTER" , a light covering connects the wires, not solder, a better YT, use overhead camera and lights are cheap all I could see is your big mitts, More help, it would be a good teaching presentation to show where the wires go to, seems you know your stuff but you left out the most important. Look forward to the improvements👌
