Paul ,

Lookd over this old article on off the peg VW cconversions { beefier
crankshaft mainly & shimming of cylinders } can't remember  company name
but from an old 1991 magazine.

Anyway  - it seems magneto's give a longer duration spark than EI - so
how do you get this with electronic ignition ?:^/ I would have thought
this would be standard stuff these days for emissions purposes anyway .......

Its called Multiple Spark capacitor Discharge.

There is a MSD brand of electronic ignition system here in the states
that is very popular.
