I have to consider ignition options for the new engine. I have a recurved aldon dizzy with lumenition. i could get it recurved, or a 123 Tune (which is tuneable from a laptop), but they essentially only give a 1D curve. apparently, there is a fair bit of part-throttle power to be found with a weber and mappable ignition so i was exploring options.
of course, the internet seems to be full of people signing it's praises (as you do when you have spunked a load of cash on something), but i wanted to get a view of someone that has done it themselves and how hard it was to get it going.
obvs there will a starting curve and a rolling road involved, but i am quite interested in having a crack at it myself.
ETA - and the possibility of someone that has done it before giving me a hand for tea/booze/heroin, natch :)
