Absolutely. I don't know how they ever got such a change approved.
-> It probably needs some big company
-> to put it's weight behind the effort.  Wonder if your El Paso
-> neighbor, MSD, would be interested.  I'd imagine the aircraft market
-> exceeds the hot rod market by  a fair amount.
What?  And fool with all the bearuecratic(sp?) paper work and liability
insurance and LIABILITY!?  Never gonna happen.
-> electronic is that you wouldn't necessarily be limited to two
-> systems.  Anything on the low tension side could be switch-swapped

-> method.
Which would be the way to go. Simple safe, and imminently practical, but
for now, just a pipe-dream for people like you and me.
Consider if you will, that outboard motors have had Mag CD and surface
gap plugs in one of the most unfriendly ignition atmospheres imaginable
