Angle drive distributors for Jacks weapon

ALways best to worry about things...before they happen!
There shouldn't be any reason why they don't work, but I was interested in the level or spark scatter and associated risk with placing parts on parts rather than just geting a coil over plug unit with a cut-outwheel and computer.
I've seen belt driven items before, and really like them. Gears worry me.

they did use angle drives on old ford flatties....they just had a 90* deal too them. basicly a goofy body with a dummy shaft with a cam gear on the other end to drive it (could you just use some dizzy gears?) and where you put in the stock dizzy there was a split collar for holding it.
Angle drives are too much work. I'm going to use something like this instead:
Yup, the distributorless is probably the way to go when clearance is a problem. It has always amused me that so many folks think of this as a new invention, but that's the way Henry did the ignition on the T-Model way back in the beginning. Yes, there have been some important improvements made since then, but the similarities are still there 8)

A bit of realted dribble...
The EEC module on 1996 Falcons did away with the distributor. The delightful thing is that even todays Ford Exploeres with V6's and Falcon OHC's with I6's still use the ancient block boss from the original engines they were based on , the Cologne V6 and the Windsor Ontario I6.
I've talked to a few people in the LPG and electronic business. The EEC kit is supposed to work as a full package with the EFI and distributorless systems, but as long as the feeding sensors are there, the TPS, cut-out wheel, piezo electric, and a disabled oxy and vehicle speed sensor, any Ford distributorless system can work. The injectors can free pulse via a relay, like just about eveything else.
It will cary the degree of spark advance. The scary thing is the cables which come out from the ECU and the Smartlock vechicle security system.
If your not affraid of the electronics, the stock V6 or Aussie "DissyMissLizie" numbers can work.
The whole 1996 to the latest 2004 Falcon EFI and ingniton system coould be fitted. Dynoed250 has mounted the OHC EFI sysytem on to his 4.1 , and even it would fit in the confines of Jacks little Seven. What is really interesting is that there was next to no major casting changes to the intake manifold on the latest DOHC six... there is little to stop interfacing even a fly-by-wire throttle. On an OHV X-flow 3.3!
