They won't improve Engine efficiency one little bit,
but those Ignitions do "wear-out" Spark-Plug-Gaps at an alarming rate,
as they are designed to deliver an extremely "High-Current" Spark.
The Spark-Plugs are replaced for every single quarter-mile run, as well as many other critical parts.
Nitro-Methane-Fuel requires a serious flamethrower of an Ignition-System,
this is mostly because the Air/Fuel-Ratio may approach as rich as ~3 to 1,
so there is always a huge amount of liquid-Fuel in the Combustion-Chamber.
Sometimes the Engines actually "Hydro-Lock" on excessive Fuel.
They use custom-made, Aircraft-style, Magnetos,
yes 2 of them, with 2-Spark-Plugs per Cylinder,
this is because Nitro-Methane burns very slowly, ( compared to Gasoline ).
