Does anyone know of any dealers out there that sell new/used lead sets for Sun equipment? The originals are kind of chewed up and the timing light has seen better days.

Steve, IF you get any "leads", let me know. I need the O-scope harness for my SUN model 960 "Scope Motor Tester" (circa '68)

Going through the pile of papers I found some more interesting stuff. Check out the late 50's/early 1960's prices in their catalog:

I hooked up the hemi to the sun machine and most of the machine actually works. Big information overload when you seing all those guages and lights flashing!

The timing light has seen better days. I think it is the inductive pickup since the magnet seems to be broken inside the pickup and the light does flash once in a while.

I can't get the cylinder cancelling function to shut down individual cylinders for comparson but maybe that is a function of the broken pickup.

Default Hemi on the Sun Machine

Here's what it looks and sounds like running:

I probably need a spark plug change as the height variation between cylinders looks like it's nearing allowable max of 4 kv.

You're too much Steve
I can't wait to get mine hooked up to the '09 and see how it's doing!

Verne, I found a place that has leads for the Sun machines. I dont know if they are for your application but they are for my 1115. I also just bought a new inductive pickup off of ebay for $17.
