You can always pin the gear in place to keep it from rotating.
Was a few asian performance 4-cyl that ran dual plugs with timing offset...but for emission reasons.
The later jackson kong dual coil distributor uses the cap and rotor from one of thoose engines.

Thanks for the multibank link. A pleasant little diversion there.

I was wondering what the drive gear was in the secondary distributor. Just putting the stock gear on upside down??

Ron, I'm 99% sure the 2nd gear is just the same gear, no mods. It goes the other way because it is on the other side of the cam gear.

I looked at it for a while before realising what is going on.
