Arrived today, thing of beauty. Project to start soon. Thanks!

My header showed up yesterday. Excellent work.

Precision screwdriver, aka Jeweler's Screwdriver.

No special tool, I simply used a very small, long flathead. It was a combination of one hand working the tool, the other holding the connector and pulling the wire with my teeth lmao.

I decided to go to the junk yard and found a few prius that had the correct male terminals. I de-pined it over the weekend. I'm going to solder connect them in and use the connecter mentioned earlier.

I have the right terminals and connectors if anyone wants them. I can’t get the crimp good enough and refuse to buy a $300+ crimper to do it!

Yes. That is how I got it from the original owner. The tach signal lead is something I added.

Is all that electrical original to the rig?

Does appear they have scaled way back. Ten offerings is nothing to what they were originally offering. Like Dianna was going to buy parts for a 82 tub I have when were made corrections. Now all I see available are the two front floor pans. Are...

Yes, I thought @65swb45 was working with him a few months ago. I was hoping to pick up a tub once he got the kinks worked out. Wanted something I didn't mind beating up on a trail to use up the parts hoard I have aquired, lol.

That will make testing more challenging…

Yes. that is possible.

I wonder if a coil would test good when cold, but bad when hot…

I am not convinced these numbers are the smoking gun I was looking for.

I am not sure how definitive those specs are, but they look out. I might as well clean up all my connections:

For purposes of clarity, I disconnected the leads to the primary coil for measurements:

The coil is acting like a resistor model.

Secondary resistance:

Primary resistance:

No resistor on igniter:

We haven’t actually tried it on a F engine, but the older variant did fit.

I understand your concern, see our fitment notes on the product page:

I got the 2-1/16” tach to fit in an existing PO hole in the dash. I don’t think it came with the bracket like the Autometer one you posted. I have an Autometer mounted on my column in my SBC’d ‘65 40.

Sorry for my ignorance: The webpage states: "2F Stainless Exhaust Header for 1969-87 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40, FJ45, FJ55, & FJ60 with 2F engines" I would like to verify that the header fits a 1F. We have a 1970 stock 1F. The description is...
