Just a couple of quick questions (i know there is no such animal in existance but bear with me)
I just purchased a CA18DE out of a s13 (i think). I got a donk, box, computer, loom, radiator, tailshaft, clutch master and slave for $450. I am gonna jam it in my 1979 1200 ute.

Is there any truth in that ca18 coils are scared of a little heat, if so whats da fix, could'nt you just pull the coil cover off and run a small bonnet scoop to air cool em. i am asking this cause i wanna squeeze as much as i can NATURALLY ASPIRATED, Thats right NO TURBO. That means winding up the compression (not the boost) and with compression comes HEAT. Whats another fix or will my idea work?????

Who out there does good cam packages other than jap import stuff like TOMI and NISMO (i am thinking CROW, WADE, SIG ERSON etc) and what were the prices and performance like if you have tried these or any other brands????

I have gone through the old posts and found that either with the stumpy 5 speed or the s13 5 speed you need tranny tunnel mods. some say just bash the tunnel and some say cut and weld. From SOMEONE who has actually done the conversion with their own 2 hands and eyes is bashing the tunnel enough. Either way i am gonne get the hot hammer out but this will let me know if i have to be a little more prepared.

Will the clutch set up that comes with my donk work or should i go the pintara set up mentioned in a previous post?????

finally electrical. 2 THINGS. 1, is wiring it going to be a nightmare or is it as simple as power to computer and plug in all the sensors and turn the key. AND 2 has anyone played with HALTECH'S E6X on a ca18, is it a hassel and what were your results like. Thanks for your time and any/all info good and bad will be taken on board and used wisely in an attempt to get my little ute FLYING.
