Andrew, thanks for the contact!
RE: " why would you want to do that?"
1. Multiple sparks at lower RPM
2. Adjustable rev limit function inherent in the 6AL controller
3. The damn thing is already wired up and bolted to my inner fender
Thanks again for the info, Tom

Hi, Tom:
I wouldn't have a clue, so I called my cousin, Darryl Uprichard, who owns
Racetorations in the UK. His question is why would you want to do that?
The 123 system is a full-integrated system and they also have a mappable
system.
If you have any additional questions, his email is
darryl@racetorations.co.uk and his phone is (011 44) 1427-616565.
Andrew

Hello Andrew,
Thanks for the reply.
Do you have any idea if the 123 distributor can be used as a trigger for an
MSD 6A series CDI ignition?
Thanks, Tom
