Flamethrower Coil

Administrator

Was reading up on these (40,000 1.5ohm) for the 460.
Stock vs it comparison aside, if this was used would something need done with the wiring because of the resistor wiring between splice 401 and 216 (pretty sure those are the numbers - couldn't zoom in well on my phone)?

But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio

Well, it's slightly more resistance than the stock coil (1.17 ohm) but I don't see that it produces a higher voltage spark than stock.

1.5 ohm should be ok with a DSII module.

Too much other stuff to mention.

Thanks Jim!
I used one when I converted my ford tractor from points and it's been reliable.
Good to know it's not that different from stock and is a direct replacement.
