Describes the construction and operation of a miniature version of the Scorpio car ignition system. The unit had to be completely contained in a 41/2 in*21/2 in*11/4 in diecast box and the soaring cost of components had to be offset with cheaper (though not necessarily inferior) alternatives. It was anticipated that to achieve the size reduction, some loss of performance was inevitable. However, the end product is a very acceptable compromise and noticeably better than conventional ignition.
