Probably everybody's still searching what a Hall effect dizzy is [:p]

I've gone "optical" on both of my cars

It appears to be a matter of where you are on this planet. Should you be on the right side of the Atlantic Ocean, the Magnetronic unit is a Hall Effect ignition system. On the left side of the Atlantic Ocean, a company called Pertonix has sold their version for a long time. For those folks south of the Equator and to the right of the Indian Ocean, I have no idea if there is a local source or if one must be imported.
