Don Zig Magnetos is a company that
is over twenty years old. Owner Don Zig has been working with magneto
ignitions for over thirty years. In the old days, he did his own mags, and
mags for his friends that he raced with, and before long that evolved into
a full time business. Don Zig has been racing since the "early days", he
has raced everything from a Buick Straight-8's all the way to his Alcohol
Funny Car. His real life experience is what gives him the
edge!
What Don sells first and foremost,
SERVICE!
The manufacturers of the products
he sells, Mallory and Vertex, put the items into warehouses, or on shelves
of jobbers. This is ok... but magnetos have internal magnets and coils
that have to be maintained and kept charged. In many cases,
when somebody bought a magneto via mail order, when they installed it they
would soon find out that it either did not work, or worked
poorly.
Don personally makes sure that all
his magneto ignitions are ready to run, and work the best they can when
they leave his shop. He specializes in "service" as well as sales of new
magnetos for Mallory, Vertex magnetos.
He is not afraid to invest time
with his clients on the phone giving advice... that is part of the job, he
feels, to providing a complete service to his clients.
He also stocks all of the wear and
rebuild parts needed for Mallory, Vertex, plus he makes his own parts from
small parts to coils. Don Zig is constantly striving to improve the
quality of his products and testing producers with more high tech testing
equipment as it becomes available to him. He is an innovator to the
ignition industry and has been in the forefront since forming Don Zig
Magnetos.
He has concentrated his efforts to
become a supplier of magnetos and parts to the industry. Leading all of
the way.... His high energy coils, cast once piece base assemblies, tach
drive bases, and small parts, dedicated to making the magneto system more
reliable and easier to work with!
