Robert,
   I'd be very suspicious of the dual LSE power loss claim.  I wonder if 
that engine builder had them timed properly.
 I know Performance Aero Engines will deliver a rebuilt Cont IO-550 or Lyc 
IO-540 with dual LSEs installed and with all of their other performance 
mods, they're getting a whopping 370 h.p. out of normally aspirated engines.
   I have one Lightspeed and one Bendix mag on my plane and I can state 
unequivocally that if I run on one or the other, I go faster (and the engine 
runs much smoother) on just the Lightspeed than just the mag.
