Check out page 20 of this thread.......the electronic kit cost about $350 dollars Aust when our dollar was good.
I installed mine so it is completely hidden unless you remove the dist cap.
It is the single most important and best improvement you can do to a B series Rolls.
Most breakdowns on the B series Rolls is the ignition system.( as is the back fire, miss fire and plug fouling)
Get rid of the suppressed plugs and fit civie plugs.........cheaper and another great improvement ( I now run 25 thou plug gap on protruded nose self cleaning plugs with fat blue spark , instead of 15 to 18 thou of the old system throwing a pale orange spark)
Check page 41 of this thread.
On page 19 of this thread check out a link to..... ignition matters.......It is a very good article about suppressed military ignition systems.
The Jolley Engineering electronic ignition will still work perfectly with the 24 volt boost while cranking as it was designed with the B series Rolls in mind.
The Stalwart doesn't use a preselector box or fluid flywheel......it uses a dual plate clutch and manual gearbox.
I don't know the exact spec for the fluid fly wheel oil.
I suspect ordinary ....thin viscosity hydraulic oil will work well.
Check this out with the Saracen blokes.
I do use in the Stalwarts brake, clutch, choke, steering and accelerator systems thin hydraulic oil.
general hydraulic oil in forklifts, excatvators etc is normally AWS 68...the 68 being the viscosity, so I use AWS 10......10 to 15 being the viscosity needed.
Any oil supplier can easily get or stock the thinner type hydraulic oils.
The hydraulic oils we have today surpast the very old specs of the 1950s.
