Ask Darren about the pod solution in one of his mags. Sounds like a cracking idea and I think I might try it myself.

I don´t have time this month, so I am just buying things :-)

big old M10 starter, small new one from S14 and old M40 one for comparison
Image
starter from S14 is now in the car

engine dampers from hard rubber
Image

and biggest improvement - new ECU from extraEFI - I´ll have setup with fuel control and distributorless COP ignition

can you take some pics of how you mount you trigger sensor, where did you get the wheel from? jason is hopefully supplying mine from massive brakes.

love the penci coils but be careful about the heat from the exhaust, could effect it

I bought sensor holder from 02again.com
http://www.02again.com/product_info.php/products_id/157
Image

wheel is from trigger-wheels.com :-)

and also coil holder from 02again.com
Image

this should hold coils and take care of heat
