scintilla-vertex mags were on some early (36hp) industrial motors, but the caps looked different than the one shown. as for what it actually came off
i can't help further.

I reckon its VW one Col. Seen whats looks like the same thing on 36HP Industrial motors used on irrigation pumps in the South Island of NZ.
There was one similar to this on ebay recently. Sold for a sqillion. US$ too.

Col, it looks very much like the one on my brothers industrial motor (late 60's ex army). It's currently in his '55 beetle while the
original motor gets some work done.
Try holding one of the leads and give it a spin, you'll soon know if it still works.

looks the same as the one on my big stroker motor (sitting in my shed) serious spark man! you don't need to hold the lead-just take the cap off,
it dosen't take much spinning to get a good spark between the points. good find!!

wrecker, I saw your other post; I'm also interested in some new leads/plugs, so I'll be curious to find out how much they're worth.
My industrial motor also has the crank handle, but I'd just about kill for that governor. Let me know if you're selling it please.

My Brother bought a Scintilla magneto just like shown.
He had it overhauled at Hardimans (near Milperra), got the advance curve changed and re-magnetised the guts.
I like the shorting fixture on the side of the things :- you have to
short out the spark to stop the motor(no battery required)

industrial motor
i have two of these engines with hour meters and governors etc mine are 1600 the cm3 means cc so it would be a 1600 i will sell the complete magneto
setup for mine ,i,m putting the motor in my split ,it reads 38 hours on the hour meter they are brand new motors ,the magneto is so you can hand crank
it ,so if you want to save money on batteries just leave it on ,just that you will look funny in the parking lot when starting it up p.s you can pull
it out and put a normal dissy in instead

the key.

That's different to mine then Nathan, what brand is it? Any idea what it was off originally? It looks like the magneto is the only part that
hasn't been polished..... you may have to remedy that.

Magneto
I think the magneto on the industrial engine is only useful for engines that maintain constant revs, and not for driving cars that use all the rev
range!
I've got one of these engines in my Ghia, and my splitty but I'm using a 009. They both had 50 and 90 hrs on. They are 1600's with 1500
heads on.

Not sure about how you'd leave the hour meter on there! I took all that stuff off, and put new tinware and fan shroud on mine. There's a bit
to do, but believe me you'll think its worth it when you drive the car! My splitty went from Sydney to Brisbane and back and purred all the way
with a nice bit of torque to go with it, and excellent fuel economy.

We wired up the Kill switch to a large button on the dash (race car ).
Guess you could put a relay at the magneto and when power is cut to the relay then it kills the motor. (Normally closed contacts on relay - energising
the coil opens the kill switch and allows engine to run ).
That way if power fails then engine is cut.
