My 2nd hand opinions, recalling what a close pal with S1 had to say on cams assuming the car, purchased back around '81, has the C type. With the stock wheels assembled at 110 MOP the car would wind

Get the petronix. Fast easy and done

I found the Lumenition utterly reliable and able to deliver what my Elan tall block TC with cams needed, on road or track. So why replace on the Esprit?

Yes, added.

Dave, Thanks for the note.? My car is located in Canada BUT it is a domestic spec series 2.? Thus it came with Dellortos and "E" cams and yellow dot pulleys from the factory. Adjustable pulleys

Thinking about upgrading my 79 S2 Lumenition ignition.? Is there a consensus on what to replace it with?? Or should I keep it? -- Rich F '79 JPS #040 '95 S4s ...SHF63000

On the website linking ( https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1979-lotus-esprit-3/ ) , in 5th large image, what is that protrusion between the silver latches on rearend of dog box??? My 79 does not

Bill, I should have thrown out more info... I wasn't thinking. The 115 MOP and 110 MOP are on the same pulley. There's a red dot/ blue dot dual MOP pulley. When the red dots are properly aligned, the

Thanks Tim. Sounds like that won't help Ian out. Oh well, I tried. Bill

Bill, The stock Jensen-Healeyl 907 used two C-cams. What vintage? Early engines were timed with 115 MOP pulleys for emissions. They were never used on any other 9XX, and later J-H followed the Lotus

Ian, I’ll add a little more confusion to the fire… In line with what Tim said about using the C cam as a mild 104 cam, the 102.5 pulleys can be reversed and repositioned to produce 104.5 MOP.

Tim, I have the major components from a JH engine that someone gave me years ago, including the cams. Without me having to dig these out, do you know what cams these would be, and will they help out

Ian, Where are you? And, what pulleys do you have now? I may be able to help with some pulleys but I’ll have to check and see what I have. Do you know for sure what pulleys you have now? Are they

Ian, I don't have either an E-cam or 110 pulleys for you, but... What is your preference for how the engine will run? Do you prefer higher performance at the top of the rev range, or milder manners/

EXCELLENT to see the shop Flat Rate hours. Thanks Tim. I think someone in the UK bragged that they could do the timing belt in 20 minutes from underneath. Sounds like a really professional job….

The engine DOES NOT have to come out in order to replace the timing belt and tensioner bearing.? ?In my Esprit S2, I could replace both the belt & bearing in 3.0 hours with the engine IN the

If they aren’t sure what they’re doing then removing the engine is a straight forward but time consuming way to make sure they do the job right. Your paying extra for their desire to do it right

Have done the timing belt in situ on my s2 a few times in my 18 years of ownership and that’s without a pit or lift. Does help to be limber though !

Toaph, There is a video on my web site (www.holycows.net/Lotus <http://www.holycows.net/Lotus> ) that shows how to get the belt on. It is very doable with the engine in place. The shop manual tells

I have a G-body Turbo with a/c. Even on this car it can be done without pulling the engine. ________________________________ Sent: Saturday, July 23, 2022 8:36 AM To:
