Maybe "electronic spark control" is the wrong buzzword for this system.  I
figred that if the spark was controlled electronically, then you wouldn't
need a vacuum can and weights/springs!  The only distinguishing factor
between  this dizzy and a plain-vanilla HEI is the 5-pin module and the
extra wiring harness coming out the back.  If I have my way, there'll be
NO distinguishing factors :)
