Ross, et al -

How about 2 magnetos and a dual electronic ignition.  The 
Lasar (Unison)
System can use your installed harness with its 2 new mags 
wired to their
electronic ignition box.  Any failure of any part of the 
electronic ignition
(including total electric system failure), causes a reversion to 
using both mags as mags.  The usual pre-flight "mag test" is just that,the 
electronics are turned off for 20 seconds while the mags are function tested.  
Timing advance is dependent on RPM and Manifold Pressure.  If you put the 
power breaker in the cockpit, you can turn off the electronic 
ignition in flightjust for the fun of it.A single electronic ignition is a 
hopeless arrangement since the mag is not advanced whilst the electronic 
ignition should be --figure what that flame front looks like.
