I had an Allison ignition on my 1600 and it started up pretty nicely on
cold mornings. The little wheel that goes in the Dist flew apart and now
I'm on points and condenser. It is once again a bear to start in the
cold (below about 45deg). That's why I was asking about the Ignitor
earlier. That and not especially wanting to deal with dwell, etc.
Interesting about the single carb idling so well.
