Hello folks,
I mentioned in my build thread about running the new LED HPI ignition system and doing a install write-up on it. The first thing I will say is this is NOT that hard, just take your time, double and triple check your TDC and stay within what Arlen recommends for the timing which is 2.85-3.00 mm BTDC. One recommendation is to spend the money on the dial indicator set that he sells for doing this install. Many of us probably already have a dial indicator that measures in inches, the one Arlen sells measures in mm, which is also how he bases his measurements.
The first pic is going to show the base plate that the stator mounts to. It's a nice simple piece and centers up the stator very nice and snug. You'll also notice with the base plate that you have numerous mounting holes and they are also slotted to allow timing adjustments should you need/want to play with the timing a bit. I should note that from talking with Arlen he did a lot of testing with this ignition and found the sweet spot to be right between 2.85-3.00 mm BTDC. The HPI instructions say between 2-4 mm BTDC.
Here is a pic of the base plate.
