I will have to admit that it’s been some time since I employed a Bendix/Scintilla mag on one of my racing “A” engines. But I do recall that none sported the “Bedding Compound”. It was a Damned nuisance to remove from the high tension lead connection area. I admit that I was concerned with water entering the area below the coils when I inevitably tipped over during a race, but I never found one drop of water in that area after I ran and dried out the engines. Just lucky I guess. The last two MK15H racing engines I built for our collection have Bendix/Scintilla mags, as I am convinced that the light weight, flat racing flywheels support faster acceleration. (Doesn’t matter as they are simply used for pleasure these days). R.T.
