g`day,
ive been using a crane xr700 with a gt40 coil in my 510 for about a year
now, works good as far as i can tell, i know it made a shitload of
difference to my clapped out HQ 202 when i fitted it to it, it nearly spun
the wheels! i rekon they`re a bit dear myself as you can do a lot more mods
for the cost of one, but they do work good. i been thinkin bout trying a
jaycar kit ignition as they are only about $60 to build, just not sure how
good they are tho.
