I'll help you out with any questions or seemingly unsurmountable problems during your conversion. A conversion is about problem solving and fabrication. If anyone contemplating a converison can not do both, then they have tough times ahead.

The documenting of the 1200/CA conversion would take hundreds of pages and 100s of hours of accurate drawings and templates to help other people to do the conversion reliably.

Good luck though, I've never tried documenting it bacause I don't want feed others enough info that they get half way through the conversion, they get stuck, and the only way they'll ever finish is that someone like me would have to go and clean up the mess, otherwise it costs a wad of cash to "undo" the damage by paying for a real mechanic. If a CA/1200 owner doesn't understand what every wire does, they are in trouble when it comes time to fix the problems, be prepared to pay double the hourly mechanic rate + parts to get things fixed. Even if it turns out to be a faulty spark plug..

If you still want to document it online, beware of potential enemies. Those who may blame your 'potential' misinformation for costing them money, from decisions made using information supplied by you and your website.

...maybe I'm getting old?
