      Distributorless Ignition System DIS8

      Anyone using this system? It's a waste spark system with one coil per 2 cylinders...
      Any comments?

      Looks pretty sweet. If I'd have known about that, I wouldn't have spent so much on MSD stuff.

      I used it for a short while and it was great a shop that was resetting the valve lash and timing on my car shorted out (i think) the setup so i sent it back to the manufacture to repair, its back now but not reinstalled





      the biggest change was on the freeway or at higher speeds! it just seemed to have more punch

      How do you adjust timing curves with that set-up? Still change springs and weights? lol

      No seriously, I didn't find any info on that the other day when I saw this.

      What I was thinking about the other day is vacuum advance. How does that work?
