Mega-Jolt into Vanagon

Post by chrisevans »

Hi Guys, I have a megajolt I would like to install on my 87 Westy Vanagon (DJ Engine). My question is - does any make a specific trigger wheel kit for this model as access is quite tight . Any suggestions as to where to look would be welcomed. Thanks from the UK

I sent my trigger wheel and pulley to a machine shop and they centered and drilled mounting screws. They charged me for an hour. Just make sure that you have room to mount the VR sensor with a bracket also.

Can't find the pictures, sold the car a couple of years ago. Here's one I think would match you setup.

I know the Vanagon had a few different pulleys. Which one do you have? I am working on a crank trigger setup for one right now.

Have a pic of your setup?
