Megadeath plus heavy mods on GT6 bonnet

As the megajolt project was getting really close - everything was in place and wired in. I turned the key, got the engine running fine in limp home node. Engine of, plug megajolt box in and start engine. Limp home runs excellent, but no communication with megajolt. It appears that the megajolt unit got fried by a voltage spike from the crappy old repro lucas generator.  Back to delco :-(

Next on the agenda was the spare GT6 bonnet that The Mad Welder had hoarded. It was in a miserable state, and just about the only thing that was salvageable was the top-plate. Which suited me fine as the top-plate on my GT6 was buggered beyond repair.

Start modding:

Megajolt getting even closer!!!

Bracket for coilpack was made. Design as per Frederick from Sideways Technologies

Oh - and new silicone hoses as it turned out that the old rubberhoses were shot after two years of service

 And finally - Megajolt Edis mounted on the inside horesontal part of the firewall using the pedalbox bolts

Megajolting efforts plus new u-joint

Haven't updated the blog for ages, which reflect the progress on the spit and GT6 rather well, errm

So this weekend there finally were some progress. Took the radiator out in order to fit the trigger-wheel sensor for the megajolt install. While the rad were out I gave it a qiuck clean and a lick of paint as some rust were surfacing.

The Mad Welder were so kind to produce a sturdy bracket from 3mm steel for the triggerwheel sensor. After drilling a few holes for the bracket it was easily fitted.

Also the drivers side rear axle had develope a slight klnocking due to worn u-joins - so a new u-joint were fitted. A lick of paint for those axles as well :-)

Megajolt are now ready for install - all wiring complete (Thanks again to the mad welder) Just need to find a bit of time....
