There has been some discussion, from time to time, about electronic ignitions and the pros and cons of the various kinds. I just finished installing a Crane XR700 in my bugeye, so I thought I'd write up something about my experience doing the conversion and make it available, for what it's worth. The report is at https://www.nonlintec.com/sprite/ignition/.
The one real problem was that none of the shutter disks provided with the kit really fit the Bugeye distributor correctly. This was really disturbing. I don't know if my distributor is a little different from the usual, or if the fit problem will apply to all sprites.
I'd be interested to hear about other people's experience doing this.
