I don't think that will work ... 200

re: "...improving the performance by turning it into a 3 cylinder. Eg. remove piston and maybe find a 6 cylinder distributor cap to get more even firing...."

You need to have the sparks coincide with the proper position of the pistons, right? Just putting in a 6 cylinder distributor won't work because the 4-cyl crankshaft will be moving the pistons up and down out of sync with the distributor's ignition timing.
