When we were racing a high RPM engine that ran in the 9000+ RPM range (not a flathead!) we were wanting to remote the capacitor. Talked to the Mallory engineers and they said it was not an issue. Sure didn't seem to impact performance, season winner with that setup. It has an impact on both resistance and capacitance in the system, but believe it is minor.
