Beautiful. Beautiful.
How do you drive all your glow plugs?

Hi there, I have a custom made glo driver that will power up to 16 or more glo plugs.

Hello Dean

How big is the battery and how many amps does it need to drive all 12 glow plugs?
It was difficult enough for me to drive the five plugs of my little 5 cylinder Siedel radial.

I use three 2 volt lead acid batteries in parallel and they are set up to be 6 volts for charging. A good friend of mine made it for me when I started the V8 build some years ago. I'll post some photos later on tonight if i get the chance.
cheers
