Thanks for the info, I have contacted Charlie ny and we are ordering a dizzy for my build today. I am fairly new to flatheads ( father /son project) and while it was my fathers final say, i thought all along that the stock dizzy was our problem (he was adamant on manifold vacuum). It had a magneto but we had a slight backfire problem and we removed it. Well that wasnt the cause of the backfire, we lashed the valves better and it went away. but now it has load a matic problems. He has move on to another hopefully better world, so know it is mine. but now i have a magneto i dont know what to do with.......any suggestions out there?
