<VV> Electronic Ign System

[Jay Maechtlen]

way back when, I remember (or 'seem to remember) that people would go to 
dual-point systems for various reasons, including that they were more 
resistant to point float at high rpm.
Now, most of them were prob running V-8s, and I guess a six would have a 
lot less tendency to float points?
For that matter, a coil that only serves a V-8 up to 5000 would serve a 
six to 5000 *8/6 =  6700 rpm.

wondering...
