COP Ignition Development

Thanks for the info, it seems like a neat project.

Any idea on price point for the controller? You said something like $10 per coil earlier? Much more than $25/coil all in and you can get a 6al2 and a lean burn distributor to cover #1-4 and most of #5. I also don't believe 4 crank / 1 cam is enough info for full sequential, is it?

If you want plug wires, rotor, cap, single coil, a sloppy VR sensing distributor, CDI, then buy it. I fail to see similarity with COP system.

Yes 4 crank teeth, one cam signal is enough. I have prior experience developing injector control for a Ford 7.3L diesel PZT retrofit, with similar timing system, that reached 2500HP on dyno. Are you forgetting the crank turns 2x, so 4x2 = 8? The cam signal is high for 4, low for 4, for two sync checks per 720 degrees of crank.
