That sounds great, My experience with points systems has proven to me to be
simple and reliable. There are always signs of a problem before any of
the components
fail.
I have a sachs and a OMC but they are charged cooled.
How can we cool them better than adding water cooling to the end plates and
the housing?

Not easy. Convert to an oil cooled rotor.
I had not thought of this idea before but our good experience with the
dry sump
system on the TTC engine suggest the way to do it is have a totally
independent oil
system with the sole purpose of squirting cooling oil up into the rotor.
You need to figure out a way to get pressurized oil into a hollow E-shaft.
A scavenge pump should be able to recover this and feed it through
an oil cooler. No need to change any of the bearings.

Block off all that mickey mouse charge cooling stuff and use the butter fly
valve as the throttle for the p-port.
There will be enough oil sloshing around in there to lube the bearings.
You will need a two section dry sump pump. One for pressure and
the other for scavenging. Use Mobil 1.
Still mix oil with the fuel to lube the apex seals.
This could be BIG if it works. LOTS more HP!!!
Should work on just about all charged cooled engines.
