Electronic ignition for Daf 55

[derek]

HI Has anyone converted a 1100 engine to Electronic ignition and if so what kit did you use?

[andrejuan]

No I haven't, but, it is on my list. I intend to use the 123 available from Dafhobby once the exchange rate improves. I have seen some cars with contactless sets fitted, but it doesn't really go far enough for me and I want the option to adjust the curve at different RPM's. Hope that helps a little.

Thanks, i have looked around and cant find anything that instantly works so Dafhobby here i come, my need to refurbish the carb at the same time.

If you just want to replace the points with something electronic then Accuspark make kits for Ducellier distributors: www.accuspark.co.uk/kit_search.html

I've personally run full electronic ignition on some of my other cars using Megajolt: trigger-wheels.com/store/contents/en-uk/p72.html

I also know some people in the classic Mini community who've had good results with Nodiz: motorsport-electronics.co.uk/products/ignition-only-systems/nodiz-pro/
