Take a look at this conversion and see if it might work. Dutch

| Found this on the Dyna Ignition site Q. Will the Dyna S work in early Panhead applications with reverse rotation distributors?
A. Yes the Dyna S works in these applications extremely well. Just remember that in these reverse rotation appplications that the front cylinder becomes the rear for ignition purposes. When using the DS6-2 single fire, simply reverse the black and white wires. With the DS6-1 dual fire, simply use the rear cylinder timing marks. Some modification to the mounting plate may be necessary for proper clearance.
Here is a link to the dyna S model on thier site, you can get them at any major suppiler for Dyna, indy shops, online etc, you might want to call them about the setup.

| Also here is a lead to a tech site HTT that has a panhead section might be worth posting over there | |

| Dutch someone on HTT posted the same and said it works under the stock cover, also that spike has a setup but you have to change the distributor works great but doesn't look stock.
One Response was
If you want to use a DynaS, you'll need a special distributor that will accept a electronic module designed for a nose cone. I'm not sure the DynaS will work on a panhead since it needs to allow the rotor to spin the opposite direction when you mount one in a distributor. There are other electronic, single fire modules that will work with a panhead. PowerArc and Spyke both sell them. There are others too, but they escape me this morning. THis is an image of the guys bike with the spike.

| Either the DynaS DS6-2 or Spyke ignition would be my choice. Someone told me the Spyke ignition is now sold under the Crane name (or maybe I got that backwards?). | |

The thing to bear in mind that with the Dyna S you still use the stock mechanical advance unit. So, you gain a hall effect trigger and zero maintenance but still have to service and maintain the mechanical advance. Not a ton gained for the money IMHO. | |

The Dyna "S" module has inherent problems. It is not a latching hall effect sensor and means that it significantly increases the dwell time. It also draws more current to run the engine. Anything but the Dyna "S", IMO. | |
