I wonder if there is a difference in the condensors betweeen 6 volt and 12 volt ignitions. Maybe one holds more current than the other before overheating and the point tips burn. No, you wont find any kind of HP improvements with a coil upgrade, the stock system just wont handle the power the coils produce, let alone the stock system is not capable of holding that kind of power. Its more like running characteristic improvement that you gain. Better, and faster starting, less plug fouling, and you can feed some more fuel without flooding the cyl, cause the new setups put so much power it to the plugs. If you have ever seen the spark a MSD box with electronic igntion puts out,, my goodness, you would not wantto be anywhere near it, nor try the ol,, pull the spark plug wire off and try to see if it has spark, cause that spark will jump anywhere it catches a ground. That could go to the distributor, and short out the electronic ign,, or to the generator and burn up the regulator,, Ive seen that happen,,, the generator be working great till I try that method, then the spark shoots up to the generator,, next thing I knew was the amp guage needle was buried, and the regualtor smoked. Imagine getting shocked by it!!!! Just have to be careful when playing with these ignitions. The best 12 volt setup I use is a Accel super stock coil, with a resistor, IH points and condensor. That works well, and does increase the spark output,, not much, better than stock,, but about 10 hours later, I will be inspecting the point contacts,, just with that setup, your pushing the envelope with point contacts. You just have to know what parts can work with each other. ChadS
