I'm really having trouble with my reasoning about going to Elec. Ign. I
might save 5% on fuel. I have about 600 hrs on Mags and Plugs without any
trouble. "So if it ain't broke don't fix it" starts to make sense.
By the way...I have 600 hrs on Smith plugs. They are Iridium and work fine.
No fouling. A "Champion plug guy" at OSHkosh said that they haven't made
those plugs in 20 yrs. The Unison guys never heard of Smith. Heck...they may
last to TBO!!

I hope you do spring for the electronic ignition.
Perhaps you will report back that you are saving so much in
fuel and spark plugs that you opened a service station and
retired early from all the fuel you saved and sold to the thick
headed magneto lovers like me.
In the meantime, I'll just sit back and enjoy BOTH my current....
and future set of Slicks and add another 50 years of dinosaur
flight to my logbook.
Barnyard BOb -- if it ain't broke why fix it at twice the price?
