I have used Skip Haney for my dizzy & coil. Excellent turn around reasonable great work fee. Send the dizzy & coil in together, he sets them up & tests the when done.

I believe Mike at Third Gen does them. Not sure about charlieny. I think he mainly does Chevy conversions for 8ba's but might be worth checking. If either of them does I'm sure you'd be very happy with the finished product. JMO

Michael at Third Generation had one of Skip's rebuilt coils up for sale on eBay I think. I don't know if he does coils himself or subs them out to Skip. Both are great guys.
