Cross drive Magneto

Post by Bryant » Thu Mar 10, 2022 6:38 pm

I've taken an interest in the variety of cross drive front plate magneto set ups. particularly the Matco/Eisemann style. My question is about rotation. does anybody know what Magneto rotation is required for this setup? (clockwise/Counterclockwise). thank you all

Thank you, sir! the Columbo style is also nice. I like the fine-tuning coupler for the mag. now to collect all the parts....

Are there any thoughts on the most “user friendly “ magneto for this set up? Best Drive coupler?
