As for the distributor, nothing wrong in my book with starting out with a stock core. I think you and Benjamin can use one of the stock ones you have and give it a fresh overhaul, &quot;ball point pen spring&quot; re-curve, mod your vac advance travel and limit it to no more than 10 degrees.

Triggering of the CD box can still be with points. If you are worried about the rubbing block wear etc. than your favorite under cap electronic conversion. Crane offers one with a rev limiter that seems to be decent, but far from your only choice.

X2 with the XR-i ignition. It worked great in my BBC Nova and the rev limiter was good insurance....cause I like RPM's. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
