Default 401 Ignition Coil

I thought I'd posted this but I'd caution against using sports coils
on old ignition systems with dynamo charging circuits. First they
take an amp or two more from an overworked dynamo and this might be
make or break on a cold night home in dark and rain, and the rise
time is much faster and this often causes arcing elsewhere than the
plug.

Mart, my business partner is an electronics engineer and he tells me
standard one is okay to 12-15000 rpm on a Bristol, so hopefully enough
for yours.
