Can any one tell me if there is plasma-ignition systems being made by any one on the list that I could buy, In a kit lay out, or a pre-made unit?

Thank you

Here is mine plasma jet spark plug:

My plasma ignition, surface discharge spark plugs, last update, had an unexpected result: simultaneous double sparks:

I have a question I was hoping someone could answer. I’m currently using the PRHV2A 20KV diodes and getting a lot of plug wear to the point of getting misfires in a relatively short amount of time. So if I switched to a PRHVP-16 1A/16KV would/could that help reduce plug wear? I know I might not have as much spark but I was hoping it would still have a plasma
effects with less plug wear. Thoughts ?

Also it’s at about 10.5 to 1 compression ratio on 110 race gas. I’m using the Msd street fire 5520.

Gary thanks for reminding me about those NGK plugs, I bought a few but never tried them because they run very cold. So what I am using are the Brisk DO10LGS-T which is still a surface gap plug. I guess what I’ll do is run the plug that’s in for now and when it goes bad replace it with the BUE2322 and see what happens. Honestly I don’t think with this much energy any plug will last very long.

Hi Jeremiah,

Might be worth a try, but it may also blow the diode. Only one way to find out.

Did the NGK shunt gap plugs not hold up for you either? I've had pretty good success with them in my Bradley. I have an older MSD unit with fewer joules, so that may be part of the reason why they work for me. I'm also running a 9 to 1 compression ratio on regular gasohol.

Aaron has moved on to other energy research, it seems, leveraging some of the principles he learned through FE research.

Hi Heysoundude
Thanks for comments on my post, I dont know where the black and yellow wire go to, I will have to trace them, I will need a wiring schamatic, will let you know, I still have not heard back from Aaron or Froz, hopefully there still alive.

hey Realtravel - the second pic of the coil, with the green(ish?) wire just below what looks like the boot of the HV/HT wire that goes to the plug - those blackish with yellow wires at the centred terminal...where do THEY go to/come from?

Hi Guys, will anybody comment on my post, I would appreciate it?

It’s got an aftermarket head lol

Hi Jeremiah,

Thanks Gary I picked some up I’ll give them a shot. Needs to be .750 reach also!

That's a surprise to me! All the older Kohler flatheads I worked on used .4375" reach. Is this an over head valve engine?
