G'day
Has anyone tried running 4 coils for their ignition? To do this do you just wire them to the alternator and do away with the dizzy or do you still have to keep the dizzy?
Cheers,
Mat

Yeah do away with the dizzy. But you need to set up a crank angle sensor which can be a pain, and some people have used the dizzy with a reluctor style pick up to determine engine position.

cheers
