Forgot to mention in my previous posting some of the benefits of my Lightspeed Engineering Plasma III electronic ignition which replaced a Bendix mag:

 

Quicker starting...

 

Smoother idle...

 

Higher static RPM by 50...

 

Better takeoff & climb performance - especially out of higher density altitude airports (SEZ & FLG for example)...

 

Leaner mixture in climb and cruise...

 

No fixed timing - is automatically variable between 20 to 40 degrees...

 

No points to wear out and no negative implications of high altitude flight (at least up to17,500')...  I suspect this type ignition system that even the guys who fly up into the mid-to high 20's that their problems might be over as well...

 

With the extreme rain we've had here in Southern California lately, I've had occation to fly in moderate to heavy rain with no problems...
