distributorless ignition for a TPI

Just wondering if it is possible to run a distributorless ignition system on a TPI motor? Is there a kit or product availible to make this happen? Just thinking out loud really. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

Electromotive TEC-3 will eliminate the distributor and run a Cam or Crank (can't remember which) Position sensor and coil packs. $2300 for the complete system with harness, ECM, and related accessories.

Just a little oh the high side for that system! I hope the ECM is on par with the latest DFI setup for tunability.

It is one of the best ECMs for tuning. I am going to get this setup in a year or two. Can't afford it right now.

I think I'll stick with my stock ECM for now. Thats one expensive setup. Though I suppose its not much more expensive than any current DFI setup either.

If you really had to go DIS, why not just go for an LT1 complete with harness?
