My dyna coils fit inthe original brackets with no modifications necessary.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

The BB kit which retains the original coils also fires all 4 plugs at once but it doesn't seem to impact on performance at all. In fact my CB350F is noticeably smoother with the BB kit fitted.

Good to know. Think I'm beginning to favour that kit

I had a BB micro power, blue box, and new coils (2) fitted to my 1973, K2, about two years ago. Long story, short, unbeknownst to me, the new coils had been wired incorrectly, in parallel as opposed to series, which introduced symptoms that led me down a long, wrong path.

In the end, once the coils were wired correctly in series, the engine is starting and running good.

I would recommend the BB elevtronic ignition system. Their website is full of useful FAQs and PDF guides. Go for it.
