Now if your plugs, wires, cap and rotor are bad, it would be a good time to replace them. Also be sure the distributor is in good working order, the centrifugal advance free and working. The shaft bushing don't need to be perfect, but they can't be totally sloppy.
Are you having any particular problem other than failing points and condensers? All this does is replace the points, it will not cure other issues, only give you a reliable, consistent spark.
It does require the correct coil. If you have a 12v system, it needs a 3 ohm coil (true 12v coil) or a 1.5 ohm (6v coil) and a 1.5 ohm ballast resistor. If you have a 6v system, it needs a 1.5 ohm 6v coil.
They try to sell you the high performance coil (which is of no advantage on a tractor engine) just to be sure you get the correct voltage coil, and to try to make a little extra money.
The ignition system IS voltage and polarity sensitive. If you are sure you are staying with positive ground and a generator and whatever voltage you are now running, get the one that matches what you have. But if you are planning on switching to negative ground and a 12v alternator, best make that decision now so you don't have to buy another kit.

I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches. As most restorers, I have a number of war stories I can relate on a range of topics that may help other like minded and interested people. Perhaps my first p
