I doubt you'd get the magneto ignition system to jump the gap on a surface gap plug. Not under compression anyway.

If it does fire, you'll burn the points rather quickly. Those are used on motors with electronic ignition. There are also no surface gap sparkplugs in the short "J" thread reach anyhow.
