Does Crane Cams, Daytona Beach Florida still exist?
I ordered from them, I think in the early 2000s, a Fireball Optical trigger ignition XR700 for my 1970 Porsche 911S MFI.
I am very satisfied with it, never had any problems.
Looking for one for my 1977 Mazda 929 Hardtop: XR700 or XR3000 (I have yet to figure out which type is suitable).

Thanks and regards.

During a tour for historic vehicles in the Belgian Ardennes.

Found their website https://cranecams.com/ but apparently they no longer sell the Fireball ignitions. Sad

Regards.

The Fireball is an excellent ignition.

Try eBay.com for old stock.
