On the dual distributor cover for 8BA's, does the left(drivers side) one run a reversed gear, or is the dist rotation just wired backwards?
How does it work?
I'd like to see it with two dist set in, back view.

Hello on the Hogan dual plugs and the dual dist. drive! I realize this post is 2016, but might these items still be available? Thanks, Mike, 503-622-3639, no text, Oregon.

That OP (Terry Webster) was a thieving bastard (he copied my product and sold it as his own). But now he’s dead.

The question now is going to be - Do you now offer any of these products or are they no longer available?

My product was a dash panel that he bought and then cast his own copies from. None of these flathead parts. But, maybe I should just find some of these flatty parts and cast my own from them? What’s he gonna do? I don’t think the devil will let him come up to complain.
