Jeff Kawaguchi did all the lettering (and gold leaf work) on both the Radical Rod and Sum Fun cars, he has a shop next to ours and is very talented, and he was a VW guy!

Yes It was a stinger S4 system bought from Berg, I believe it would retard 2 degrees per 1000 rpm after a certain RPM, seemed to be the hot ticket at the time. I lot of guys were getting away from mags at that time because they took more hp's to run or something like that..
