Dennis,
Are their any problems with the automotive plugs at high altitude ie: 18K+? Any
of your customers routinely fly them this high?

Not that I'm aware of. But then again, I don't know if anyone is flying at
18K+ altitudes either with the conversion kit. You may want to post the
question to the RV list since some of the RV's are flying with automotive
conversions and some may also be flying at the flight levels.

I've flown my Lancair 360 up to 22K and it has a set of auto plugs in the bottom
holes fired by electronic ignition and the thing ran well at high altitudes.?
The upper plugs were running on a magnetto.

Years ago I remember hearing about engine problem the Hellcat was having at
high altitudes. The test folks couldn't figure it out, because it only
happened high up and all system tested normal on the ground. The test pilot went
to talk to the Republic test pilot because the P-47 was using the same engine
and readily got to 30K. It turns out the ignition harness system on the
P-47 was pressurized and the Hellcat not. The lack higher density air, the
wiring was shorting out. Many of the bombers had pressurized ignition harness.
