    People will not just throw down their race motor just because a coil is not legal
    There is no proposal in any form by anyone to make any motors illegal and no longer raceable in APBA. The lessons of 1985 in the switch from Merc KG-4/MK-15 to OMC 15 have been learned.

    Every single racer is valued and nobody is left on the beach in any serious proposal by anyone in the last 10+ years that I am aware of.

    302SSH.....Putting the Stock back in Stock Outboard

      OK, this thread has gotten off track and I contributed to it.

      The important thing here is to get Bill on the water.

      Bill, for testing purposes can you use Chris Fabbro's 302?

      Is there a racer in the Southeast willing to let Bill Haddock borrow a motor or at least a coil? Walker Racing is down to just one 302 for a while, but I know there are others out there.

      Lets get this guy into racing!

Some people cant afford to buy a new or used motor that is avalible, they will try to fix what they got as long as it is allowed to be raced. If it were legal in MOD say 10 people run this setup well that makes 20 working coils that could be sold to stock racers who are having coil problems.
        Most every other part for the 102 you can still get somehow.
        I am a new racer and all i have is a102 with a bad coil therefore i wont be able to race this year and im sure there are a lot more racers out there with the same problem as well. Even too there are a lot of people who just play around on the weekend with the 102 that dont even race with APBA, this is an option for them too.
        Is it not legal in Mod currently ? Sorry, I have not much experience in the Yamato motors, just Mercs and OMC.

        In the spirit of Modified, I would think you can run any ignition you want to. We run a Merc ignition on the OMC, an OMC fuel pump on the Merc 44's , etc. I seem to recall they restrict the C yamoto to no porting, just filler block and pipe in APBA. Can use any gearcase, and tower housing though. Other than that, I am not certain what you can do. Seems like you should be able to adapt any ignition to them.
