Matt would be a fun day if you were closer. Building a HEI distributor with some mods, a 60K coil going to beat the crap out of it on the mockup to see how many KV at different speeds up to 8K. I have a clear cap now just need a white lab coat!

That is pretty cool.

John Soemer told me he tested the earlyish MSDs like the 505BC with a setup like that runnin a piece of paper to see haw much of burn mark it left. Kindof like a recording osciliscope (which no one had then).

I know some folks will say you have to palce the spark plugs into compressed atmosphere to get an "accurate test" but I don't think thats neccesary for just comparison purposes. Just can't compare a test in atmopher to one under pressure.
