Subject: should I replace my BTH magneto with a Scintilla ( which one?)
Mark's magneto service in Connecticut just called and he has gotten round to checking out my original BTH mag for my M45. He says they were not a very good mag, something about weak magnets . He said it will work but would be dicey on a 3000 mile road trip. I had heard about a later Scintilla as a replacement and was wondering what model number it would be as he said he has the appropriate one in stock. I am aware that a different 'cradle" must be fabricated and am wondering what challenges to expect with that as well.
