| -2- to Delco Remy type bracket. Maximum bracket temperature 76°C. Not suitable for Wraith. Misfires. During each of these tests the maximum battery voltage was 15.1 volts. In the case of the out put speed curves the coil was connected to a standard Delco-Remy distributor which was in turn wired up to a standard Wraith H.T. cable in conduits. When subjected to these conditions the obtainable output is appreciably less than when taken directly from the coil. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs} | ||
