Re: RML Ignition System

["Dean W. Cains" <dwc@domain.elided>]

Hi Terry:

I've got a Crane XR3000 and LX-91 in my '74 Spider.  The Crane parts are 
the basis of RML's systems.  I mounted the coil in the stock location, but 
the spark box is inside the cabin, under the glove box.  I made an 
extension cable to attach the spark box to the optical trigger, but that 
was no trouble, and the connectors cost about $2.  If you leave one of the 
connectors off the extension before it's poked through the firewall, you 
need only make a small hole (use a grommet).  I wanted to hide the spark 
box, but there may also be some benefit from keeping it clean, cool, and 
dry inside the cabin.  The trigger cable runs low along the inner fender 
(near the heater hose), and the coil wire runs high (as original).  There's 
not a lot of room on that right inner fender, so watch your clearances with 
the Spica airbox, and remember the extra clearance required for removing 
and installing the airbox.

Regards,

Dean
