A bit like this. If Cylinder 1A is in TDC, so should be cyl 2B. These two cylinders should be connected to the northpole firing leads of ignition one. Cyl 3B and 4A should be in BDC and be connected to the southpole firing leads of igition 1
90 degrees of crankrotation further, cyl 1B should be in top together with 3A, those should be connected to the northpole firing leads of Ignition 2. Cyl 2A and 4B should be in bottom and connected to the southpole firing leads of ignition 2
No biggie. I have done that kind of thing before. All that needs to be done is checking whether the cams are in such position that when Cyl 1A is in firing position, Cyl 2B should be in scavenging position. If that is not the case, one camshaft should be rotated 180 degrees under the belt.
What are you striving for, the "big bang" approach, two cylinders firing simultaneously. I haven't seen how they setup the CDi on the inline 4's. it should be straight forward, no fancy coding, I don't think they use an end of phase reset, just alternating 180 degrees,south then north pole, so you can pretty much set it up depending on the orientation of the two dual hall sensors, and the number and orientation of the magnets,
