George, if you haven't already, I would suggest that you list it in the Maxwell thread of the AACA forums, the HCCA classifieds, and the Maxwell group on Facebook.

You wouldn't happen to have a Splitdorf Model F four cylinder magneto in good condition, would you?

Here’s another view of the Splitdorf H. And I Did list it on the HCCA Classifieds. When I acquired the Maxwell, it had a J Deere WICO mag. I paid a lot for 2 correct Splitdorf Hs; and now this one is excess.

Interesting thing about the 2 cylinder Maxwell ignition - It is a "wasted spark" system. The coil box that it uses has two secondary terminals and it fires both spark plugs every engine revolution. One cylinder is on its firing stroke and the other is on its exhaust stroke when the coil fires, so the second spark is "wasted". Many Maxwell owners rebuild their coil boxes using a modern Harley Davidson coil with dual secondary outputs.
