Re: Amp. box conversion help
That engine is capable of the "car coil conversion" pretty simple to do too...<br /><br />throw the amp, hook the points up so that its feeding a negative (at the appropraite times) to the coil, hook the other side of the coil to a positive (when the ignition is on) feed..<br /><br />the main problem with this system is that the standard points are not designed for this level of current and my wear out pretty quick, maybe you can adapt a set of auto points to fit.. (some people swear to me that its not necessary, others say it is.)<br /><br />the other problem with this method is that series of OMC has only a 9 amp charging system, so it may not be able to cope with the added drain.<br /><br />still, its been done alot and not many people complain about it.<br /><br />There are other posts in this forum about fitting car iginition systems as well, use the search facility.<br /><br />rgds<br /><br />Frank
