I was told that i should use a magna distributor on an supercharger setup i am doing... it is going to be blow through lpg on a 4g54 from an 88 triton (was carby).
Why is the magna dizzy better than the stock dizzy on my current engine? they are both electronic and i'm not sure why the magna one is supposed to be better for this application.
Thanks Dave

Re: Magna dizzy
I tried to fit a Magna Dizzy to my Sigma, but the base plate of the Magna dizzy (the part that the adjustment bolt goes through) is at a different angle. The control unit on the side of the Manga dizzy hits the thermostat housing of the Sigma inlet manifold.
Re: Magna dizzy
Magna dizzy's (except for the TM carby model) are all designed to provide electronic trigger pulses to an ECU. Also they DO NOT have the vaccuum advance mechanism, so, unless you are fitting some kind of electronic control, stick to the standard Sigma dizzy.
There are two types of Sigma electronic dizzys, the early one that requires a control module (which is usually mounted behind the LH headlight), & the later type that has the module integrated within the dizzy. The later type is very easy to hook up, only requiring ignition power to make it work.

Re: Magna dizzy
Seeing that he was comparing a Magna dizzy to a Sigma dizzy, I just assumed that he was talking carby dizzys, not EFI.
