They weren't much of any good back in the day, because of poor dielectric strength (= poor resistance to flashover) and with today's higher-power ignition system options, they'd be even a worse pick...

...and I don't think they ever made them for the slant-6.

Other than that it's a terrific idea. :lol:

Yeah, get a clear dizzy cap and one of those in-line spark testers for each cylinder! Then break out the acid and shrooms and put a lava lamp on the air cleaner.... :D

Hmmm. Sounds like the interior of the custom van I have been wanting to build for awhile.

If you are recurving, it is useful to take a spare cap and cut a hole in the top so you can see if the rotor is dead center to a contact. If not you can adjust to center the rotor. Useful indeed at high rpm, maybe not so needed if using Dan's MO3000.
