Unfortunately not!
I did get the pleasure of confusing a whole bunch of muppets who wanted to see under the bonnet and then couldn't figure out how the spark got from the distributor to the spark plugs though!
My plug leads run along the top of the tappet cover and then disappear through the firewall to the coil I nicked out of a Ford Cougar.
My main reason for going this route was because my nipper chose it as part of his motorsport degree and because the 4.2 only had a few hundred miles on it since it's last major rebuild.
Now starts and runs better and best of all it doesn't keep overfuelling and stall on steep assents or descents. That really used to crank me up, it was as if the ungrateful lump wanted to either kill me or itself.
But truth be told, it would have been easier and simpler to swap in a 4.0.
But this way, if I stumble across a poorly 4.0 long block I can stroke it in my own sweet time and then drop that in without any hassle as I already have all the rest of the kit mounted up, well that's what I tell myself anyway!
Delk is really the man you want to talk to, he has a stroked 4.0 with efi and has far more experience than I do.
