You could also use the Pantera Electronics ignition system.
A/C cutoff controlled and monitored by vacuum rather than rpm with many
other features built in..
Trickle charger, ignition retard during start, electric fuel pump control -
low rpm setting + cutoff if engine is no longer running, etc etc..
