Cool looking mini:-) and quick looking metro in those videos.

I have decided to dig up an old lucas 65d dizzy and send it off to the distributor doctor to have it recurved with new springs.

The programmable ignition i will considder for my tuned 998 metro that the girlfriend is driving as her daily. It currently has a dizzy that is exactly like the one in my hill climb metro and also recurved.
Thanks for your suggestions and help.

the ignition on the metro still used a dizzy. there was a trigger on the crank and the curve was mapped in the box and the dizzy just pointed at the right place at about the right time.

 

But Yes AC does a good job.
