Might be an early porsche twin plug dizzy.

This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

for twin plug heads, can be timed differently to get a flame front of a different shape, good for the torque curve. Way oldschool way of improving the kettering ignition before things like high discharge coils and CDI's were around.

Yes, the aircraft engine sounds very feasible...
twin plugs etc.. in case of failure

while up there in the wide blue sky...

Never even thought of using twin dizzies....

I would presume these are very Rare...
