6.1 dual coil ignition mod
This was an unexpected buy the other night, couldn't pass it up. Anyway I recieved it today and it looks like it'll be the next mod to get done. I also have headers that need installed but I want to do them on a lift. I spoke to the guy at a shop I have had some work done last year and he's going to let me come in the following weekend while the shop is closed and use their lift. Way cool dude. So anyway I'm about to dump the ugly wires. This should improve the engine looks and can't help but to improve the ignition some. I'm hoping this will prevent the "miss-fire" codes that pop up with the bigger cams.

Got to running late today so didn't start until 2pm. passenger side is a piece of cake, but as we all know the drivers side is a bitch. I took my time aand thought it went back together well. Took it for a test ride and I have a very slight oil leak far back drivers side corner. I don't have any wires pinched, so hoping I can tighten it a little, if not I'll take it back off again. A more seious problem is I have dead cylinder. But hey, that's what it is all about. If it was easy, everybody would have a top gun...

Old Red looks the same as last year. I posted pictures of the Aeon Spring install earlier. The LP sensor is using the AeroForce gauge from last year. I posted pictures of the Window Switch mounted on the end of the dash. I'll get some pictures up on the 6.1 install when I get that sorted out. I left my good camera with my Grand Daughter and am trying to master my new phone camera and have finally figured out how to transfer pictures via Bluetooth to my new laptop, All my technology has been upgraded and is kicking my butt. Being old and not too savy about this new stuff has been a challenge. None of the mods are impressive to look at, so if there are specific questions about any of the mods I will certainly share what I know.
Trup I really appreciate your support, I was was just having some fun. It's nice to have a pat on the back once in a while.
Thanks,

Update,
Pulled the driverside valve cover and sure enough had pulled the corner gasket loose. Carefully put it back. Hint, if you get back in place and lift it a little and drop it back on the head and it makes a hollow thunk noise then you still have the gasket in place. if it is adull noise, look it over as the gasket has slipped. Tighten it up solid and started looking for the dead cylinder. I moved the coils around on the drivers side when I put it together and there was no difference. Started pulling coil plugs and it was the first one I pulled ie the front passenger side. This was the last one I wired up and it had a cold solder joint. Cleaned it up and it runs great. Anytime I can make something simpler I like it, besides I don't think I could every wire up the original cross fire setup and get it right.
