[QUOTE="LonLB, post: 223461, member: 4391"] I've been reading about MSD ignitions. I want to go that route eventually. From the multiple sparks, to hotter spark, adjustable timing, etc,etc. You would be able to set your rev limit to anything you want, get multiple sparks vs 1 spark, hotter ignition, and be able to adjust timing to have a variable timing curve. One that retards for easy starting, advances quite a lot in mid range for more grunt, and then retards slightly at WOT for a built in safety margin. Apparently there used to be a kit that had a digital CDI, three single tower coils, and three trigger pick ups. After looking at this setup, I think that you could use them in place of the factory triggers, and keep the charge coils in place. Otherwise some guys add a pulley/alternator. Which I don't want to do because of expense (major expense because you will need a new flywheel, and alternator plus all the other small parts) Then fab a new coil bracket, for the MSD coils, wire it up, and should be good to go.
