Frost plug suggestion here too, good idea for the housing on the back of the head too

As Bazda says, just take the cap and rotor etc out and its the perfect plug.

i presume you're using the 7afe crank angle sensor?
I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

Fit a missing tooth wheel to crank pulley with reluctor pickup sensor and you're away laughing. Sub $200 for both from Link IIRC

you'l obliviously need to mount a sensor (vr) as well.
will depend on what ecu and ignition / injection setup your going to run. if you will get away with a single missing tooth trigger wheel like those. will do dizzy, wasted spark, but not coil on plug from memory. i could be wrong here, probably best to talk to link if thats what your going to run

Correct, you cannot do coil on plug properly without a cam signal,
as there is no way for the ECU to tell the difference between compression and exhaust stroke.

Unless you have wasted spark and batch fired injectors I guess?

Oh... you said 'properly' :lol:
