I hate this rule. I read it as the installed motor's stock ignition system must remain, but you can throw whatever plugs/wires/coil(s) at it that you want.

1 - Since the class is weighted by displacement, why wouldn't swapping to COP or waste spark from a mechanical distributor be allowed? theoretically, this simply brings everyone closer to the potential of their swept volume, similar to the allowed removal of AFM/MAF etc...

2 - Regardless of #1 , does this rule allow for the instalation of non-stock pickups on the crank/cam for purposes of fuel and spark timing, or only the changing ("replacing") of sensors in stock locations?
#2: Well, it says, "replaced" so. I'm thinking you can take a bendix crank sensor and replace it with a Motronic. But replace doesn't mean "add"

I hate that they said "freely". That word adds nothing, except confusion.
