So looks like I might be looking for some duel plug heads soon.

 

I have done up a few of these over the years , they used a cap from a nash , each pair of points ( bendix aircraft) fires 8 spark plugs. The advantage of dual plugs has never been shown to me , i would like to see some dyno sheets supporting the dual plugs. Later aut makers used dual plugs in some applications to burn a super lean air fuel mixture to pass emissions etc.

Thanks so much for your help and info. I would only use it for the looks I'm not going to be racing it. I might consider selling it if someone really needed it for a period correct race car.
