hello Folks,

Anyone running a 'new style' two wire electronic Dizzy.
Just bought one to run on our engine 'run-in stand'.

No wiring diagram, just red to coil and black to ground the seller said.
Does this sound OK?

Best wishes from Poly John.
 
What brand is it. Msd and Mancini sell them but most will have 4 wires. Two to the coil, One ground and One for the tachometer.

The old electronic distributor (often called a dizzy, for those souls that do not know how to spell correctly) conundrum......how to connect two wires....which go to what terminal or source of power or ground or black or red???..... how about a magneto....which require no wire connections...self contained.....WICO was a name brand that was used on early 392 Hemi dragster engines...why not give it a try.....you'll be "shocked" as to well it works......

But with a magneto, NO external wires or COIL is required or needed....the magneto is self contained...no external power is required .....the dwell and high voltage windings are all done internally.......no muss no fuss....be the first to show your buddies how simple and ignition system can be.....BTW......your drawing shows a GM/Chevy distributor.....how about a MOPAR distributor......

Same drawing different distributor. Other than the tach input.
