30Tudor, you ask about the Pertronix coil, if you are running 6 volts you would use the 1.5 ohm. If running 12Volt use the 3.0 ohm. These coils won't need a resistor and the epoxy filled version won't leak oil like some oil filled coils when mounted with the connections at the bottom as model A coils were mounted. You will get quick starts and more power that you can feel.

I thought that I posted this info yesterday. I don't see it today so here it is again.
