Mikenlapaz,

I'm still wanting to put the ignition sensor in the rear. I'm waiting for some thin wall tubing that's the same diameter as the crank. I'm going to decrease the diameter of the rear crank behind the rear bearing and cut it off about 3/8" out of the bearing. Then I'll slide the tube over and that will go throught the rear seal and I can solder on a magnet plate to the back of the tubing after it comes out of the seal. That way I can mount the hall sensor on an arm and have it linked to the throttle for advance.

captn,

I would like to use one of the 1/4 X 20 spark plugs but they are almost $15 each and I've heard they don't last long. This I feel was a good compromise at $2.25 per.

ZAGNUT,

Holly cow!!!!!!!! That's light!!! Do you have a model # and/or pic? I'd love to do this surgery to that motor. Keep us posted. The reason I'm not including the ignition in the weight is that the ignition will be mounted over the wing so it won't affect the balance. The only thing forward will be the sensor/wire and plug boot.
