Why use a coil instead of the dizzle? I imagine its so the ECU can control ignition easier? What coil you using?

lovely. Dizzy is old technology. Far better off without moving parts and using a coil pack. My mount is from s b d also. Looks well different laugh out loud.

yeah the bracket bolts to the head over the top of the dizzy blanking plate, im using coil setup because there just better really, think im just gonna use a coilpack from a 2.0 vectra, think thats what others use
think they just changed the design of them, expensive place to shop is sbd lol

well its been another day on the mrs nova, we wanted to change the clutch plate for the standard one as the helix paddle one is just no good around town etc
so we jacked the car up like this
is that a real person under there?
then started removing the box
its original clutch going back in
few bits
and back together
