Martini RSR engine build

What he said . . .

I thought 'mepstein' was asking about the price of the air filter system, but if you mean how much did it cost to.......
test on the dyno it's about $1000 for the day.

Just to finish off for now, here's a video of one of the power runs. Hope you've found the thread interesting and thanks for following.
Forgive the music, but turn up the volume anyway...........

HA! Good response, Mike.

I really like that Marelli distributor.

I didn't notice if you stated, but what type of electronic pickup setup did you end up using - i.e. manufacturer? I've been considering making this modification to my own Marelli twin plug distributor, too, and I was looking into Pertronix.

Your (and Neil's!) attention to details is very impressive, Mike.

Thanks for the support guys appreciate it!

Hi Marco, the distributor has taken a couple of years to perfect, and it was Pertronix who helped out with the internal trigger and pickup design.
They were keen to develop a conversion system themselves so used it as a bit of a test bed, we had to make a further couple of modifications to
it when it came back, but on the whole really pleased with their work.

Hope that helps.

What kind of modifications did you have to make over and above what they produced? Did you have to modify the distributor body?

Sent you a PM Marco.
