I am curious if you can "Y" the spark plug wire so that the spark goes to both plugs?
no...but it could be set up so that one plug terminal gets juice from the HT lead and the other plug terminal is connected to ground.

only prob is that the spark might decide that the hall sensor is an easier path to ground. maybe a plastic hub could be used and this wouldn't be a problem.

You are saying put the two spark plugs in series. Theoretically this would work. They do it when the spark is run through a distributer.
But then the engine would have to be isolated from ground. Has anyone tried this? It would save a coil and maybe make it cheaper.
