The opel does not use a dist. its running 3 wasted spark coils driven from the MS system without a ignition control box. The ignition is triggered off of a 36-1 timing wheel out of a 92 escort.
Rather than mod the cross member I'd modify the oil pan using 2 I5 pans to get a rear sump.
My truck is running - not driving it much now - a bit cold without heat. More focused on completing the real turbo motor, which is trying to say the least. Seems murphy has signed onto the engine build team here...@@#$!!@# its a lesson in patience.
