Based on what I know about Bill from a few years worth of e-mail messages
and a couple of years worth of running down the strip with him every week,
I'd say that's *highly* unlikely. Darn near impossible, as a matter of fact.
I've seen a magazine claim an E/T increase after installing a Jacobs system,
but I have yet to hear from anyone on the DML who has not experienced a loss
after installing an aftermarket ignition. There are, in fact, three documented
cases of losses, one with an MSD, and two with Jacobs. What's your experience
been with aftermarket ignitinons? You've obviously seen/sold a lot more than
most of us have. Have you ever seen or done any dyno or stip testing to
verify the performance changes after an ignition install?
