I already have a bracket I'm using but it needs to be changed slightly, especially for the coil- that's going to need some fabrication. Third ignition system on the bracket since 86, it's older than the boat is.

On a side note pertaining to Daytona sensors.......does anyone know if the tech support has suffered since the untimely death of the one partner? I'm not sure if it was the "tech" / engineer partner or the business partner that passed.

I believe it was the chief engineer who was also a partner. I'm not using the custom timing functions, so I'm hoping not to need any help. Seems pretty straightforward.

I must admit, their tech support wasn't the best, even when he was alive. He wasn't much of a people person. He obviously knew his chit, but was kinda hard to deal with.

We had an issue once on the dyno. The tech guy there kept screaming at me "SEND ME THE DATA LOG". I was like "dude, I can't data log anything, if we can't get it to go into the custom map mode and run the engine". He would then repeat "SEND ME THE DATA LOG I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE TELLING ME". I'm like , "dude, it is stuck in fixed timing, the mode switch isn't working to switch it to the custom map".

"SEND ME THE DATA LOG!!!!!!!"

So we called the owner of Daytona. He gave us a phone number to call, as this guy has sold some Daytona boxes. I realized when we hung up, who's number it was, and knowing that this person had zero hands on experience using the daytona software, we figured it out on our own rather than wasting time. It was a problem with the mode switch function.

If anyone is looking to purchase these kits, I highly recommend calling Mark Rinda at MER performance. He knows the product, has used the product, and has been a WD for them for quite some time now. I've helped out quite a few oso members setting them up, and don't mind helping out.

Vintage, I know you and I have traded quite a few blows here , but if you need any help with it, PM me, and I'll give you my number and try to help ya out. the instructions they give, can be a bit confusing.

Much appreciated MT. Thats cool of you to offer.

I talked to the same guy before I bought mine and he was definitely hard to deal with.
The secretary gave me his cell when I called the office and I felt like I caught him off guard (I actualy thought, " she's gonna get an earful for giving out the cell#").

The news reported what was going on in his personal life. I give him credit for answering the phone at all.

I called before the guy passed. I believe I talked to the guy who died.

Yeah, that's who I was referring to.

I definitely dont think it was a new thing , about their tech support issues.

The owner Allen seems to be a really good guy, and stands behind his products

Wow. I just read a couple articles online about his death. I assumed it was natural causes. Holy chit. Thats messed up.
