Default The best I can get my crab

Bought a vane dizzy setup device last swap.

I am about to pull the crab and check it.

Pilot 221 engine, but a USA dizzy, not a pommie one..

It isrunning 12 volts and if I recall, it is still running the original condensor.

It had new points.

Would like to know what modern condensor I can buy (in OZ preferably) and if I am running a use with resistor coil, what is the best way to go and what type of
resistor ?

Or is it best to go with a non resisted coil?


I am pretty sure I have a full voltage pin on the starter solenoid for cranking.

Engine starts and runs fine, and it is only a cruiser,but I suspect it is missing a bit if I give it a bit of pedal at higher RPM.
