So if the clip is in situ and looks like its been there for a 'while' I assume the Hall sensor to be factory and in my case 21 YO...........time for a change.

Well, I thought I needed 4 (2 for the GT and 2 for the stroker) but come to think of it I can't get the replacement connectors to seat all the way 'into' the brackets, so the clip wouldn't fit anyway. Oh well.

Rob,

Your plater is going to buy some vacation property when you are done with the GT and stroker engines.

So what do we needd to do to modify the bracket? A little work with the file before they go off to the plater?

Mine went in fine, the only issue was at the very bottom of the clip, there is a difference in the hard plastic part that goes around the cable.

All you have to do is put a cable tie on the bottom of the clip.

At least on my 87.

If you loosen the Phillips screw on the cable clamp for the new (shorter-cabled) Hall sensors you can extend the connection cable by the few millimeters necessary to orient the connection in the factory position. Then position the connector in the bracket and wind the Hall sensor into place in the cover and install the assembly on the motor.

That is one fantastic engine!

I can drop your stuff off tomorrow afternoon? Will you be around tomorrow?

Ryan-

I have to school some grad students in the ways of IBD pathogenesis in a seminar tomorrow afternoon, and there may be an untimely death or two given the long weekend (I'm on service this upcoming week), but you can just dump stuff on my porch any time this week- I won't get a chance to play in the garage again until Saturday.
