Hi Matt, 

Here's an ugly picture of a triggered gap spark.

Here's the HEI trigger gap (ignore the little blue coil):

Here's the inside of the trigger gap:

As you can see, this gap is a little different. I was trying to make a trigger
gap to handle higher power. It worked ok, but in the end, my G10/tungsten
rotary gap is still the best performer. It seems I always try something new and
come back to the rotary. I've since taken the trigger gap apart and simply
using my SRSG configuration. I will be using the trigger gap on my flat coil
however along with a MOT bank. 

Take care, 
Bart
