From what I have gathered, the following is required (some info from turbo_canuc's posts in this stage 2 forum thread http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/st...t-thanks-cal-dan.html?highlight=distributor):
- pull the coil + module, cam sensor and msd dis4 box
- order a distributor (such as msd billett, pn# MSD-8551, $346.88)
- order a set of wires (such as pn#MSD-31199 $87.88)
- order an msd coil (such as pn#MSD-8261 $139.88)
- order MSD box (such as 7al2plus - pn#MSD-7222 $542.88)
- order dead-end connector plug which bolts to the harness where the stock ignition module used to go (available from cal hartline)
- order a jumper that plugs into the cam sensor plug and the distributor
- POSSIBLY have BHJ balancer relucter ring moved
- POSSIBLY modify the IAC sensor so that it doesn't interfere with the dist. cap
- modify A/C bracket if still being used
- POSSIBLY modify tensioner if factory unit is being used
- POSSIBLY need to modify inlet pipe
- locktite the rotor screws in
- cut off 5 of the 6 reluctor tabs on the distributor shaft to give a cam signal, plug it in, then point it at #1 while the engine was at 25*, before tdc.
- verify timing with a light
Is this all correct for a 109 motor? Is a modification to the BHJ balancers required? Will this (distributor setup) work with a GEN1 BS3?
Thanks.
