Hey Jonesy,

Just looked at the engine I got with the RH from Coffs, (the spare)  It has the pickups and they're intact.

They're yours if you want them.

Great pics, but remember the RH hasn't got the mechanical advance unit on the ignition plate so movement may be less and the wires shorter on them

Just one of the many features of the RH that improved the marque.

This how they improved the wiring on the RH so that it doesnt break over time.

Hi Jonesy,

I have a new set as a spare.  I can take photos on Sunday night or Monday with a ruler to give you in indication of the length.

does anyone have a photo of the un-molested original pick up coil wires for an E. what I have now is pretty shoddy, and I dont want to replicate the length of the wires it has now. whats there now looks to long to me
Thanks
