John:

1) the burn isn't really *faster*, it just gets started quicker...  but that's pretty much the same result.

2) That's waaaay to many variables to give you an answer.  I really don't have a specific value for you.  Wish I did.  Sorry.

  Yes, I now see what you are saying. I did not read your earlier post
carefully enough. You are saying that 3x the spark energy, across the .032"
gap of two spark plugs, causes a faster burn than the normal magneto sparking
.018" gaps.
  How about, for once please, some numbers. Choose any engine you like, and
tell me, when you change from magneto to EI:
  How many degrees Theta PP moves?
  What is the change in horsepower produced?
  Perhaps, even, what is the change in CHT resulting?
   Thanks you, John
