i would imagine finding an electronic dizzy for an L20 would be difficult at best. there is a thread on here, for converting a points setup to run electronic ignition on the L series engines.

you could also just remove the second coil, and spark plug leads......presto.....its a 4 spark engine again.
remove the Exhaust side leads.....as I think those are the ones added that trail by a deg or something from the inlet side plugs to burn any unburnt fuel remaining

^ this.

Pretty sure the Z18ET can run with only the inlet plugs. Any reason why you only want to run four plugs though?

My mate had a L18ET with a 8plug dizzy and the exhaust plugs arn't needed didn't run any different when when unplugged that coil.
