The idea was to use a
> motorcycle or snowmobile magneto.

Hi Ken;
This idea was brought up a few years ago and while I initially thought
"wow, great idea", I happened to have a spare coil from a 780cc MachZ engine
and try as I might there is no easy way to make this work. It would take a
very substantial amount of work to make it feasible. It may be a good
project for the future when I have nothing to do... Hah, like that'll ever
happen?
