Guys & gals,
I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes, specifically Rick's. But because he is no longer making and selling the Mac CDI setup, and it seems he hasn't done so for a few years or so, I was hoping that someone who owns one would be kind enough to dissect it and post pictures of the components and how it is assembled, etc. My objective is simply to build one for me and to help others too,if I can. There seems to still be a lot of interest in that system, but no supply. I have no desire or intention to profit from Rick's design and work.
If Rick would do that, that would be great, and I would be deeply appreciative. I sent Rick a PM a few days ago, but it appears that he has not logged into this forum in about a year. But Rick, if you read this and are willing to tell me (us) how you made yours and what components you used, I will be happy to pay you for your effort. I'm not trying to get something for nothing, I'm just trying a last ditch effort to acquire that CDI ignition.
If Rick's CDI system requires lathe and/or milling working, that is no problem for me. I am a professional machinist and I have a lathe and milling machine in my home shop too.
I can make a pointless ignition system that requires a 12V battery, but I would prefer a system that doesn't require the added weight of a 12V battery.
