I'm rebuilding my '56 Pan and would like some advice on Electronic
Fuel Injection for this bike. I have a Mallory dual fire electronic
ignition to be installed and was wondering if there is an EFI system
that is compatible with a kick start Panhead. Before I started the
overhaul, I had an S&S carb., before that a Rivera SU. It has dual
plug STD heads, but the engine was still very, very hard to start when
cold. At that time it had a Spyke single fire ignition with Crane dual
coils which was total shit. Very weak spark and useless to start the
engine when cold. I'm convinced the Spyke igniion was the culprit. I
gave it to a friend and owner of the local motorcyle shop and he had
the same results with it on his Panhead. I'm 58 yrs. old and need for
my old Pan to start within at least 30 kicks when cold. The engine has
a 4 1/2 inch stroke, 3 5/8 cylinders. all S&S. A Sun active balancing
system machined into the flywheels. Andrews B cam, S&S cast pistons
and approx. 8 to 1 comp. ratio. 93 inches. Thanks for any input and
advice.
