bernie lomax Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I am interested in running a hot racing coil (approx.50,000 volt) w/ my stock 78 "magnetic trigger" dizzy (my electronic ignition system is the one just before the E12-80 type)...I am trying to confirm if the coil & stock ignition should be compatible given that I've read that a racing coil should be run w/ a companion racing ignition (info I've read indicates that a racing coil may draw too much current & damage the ignition)...I thought this would be more of a concern if I were running a points distributor setup, but what about w/ my electronic setup? is there a way to tell? (ie. acceptable ohm resistance from the coil?) or would I be better off buying a MSD Blaster-2 coil & running that w/ my stock ignition? this is assuming that my magnetic trigger ignition is "just as good" as the E12-80 type. your thoughts are appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurePontiacKid Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I'm running a Blaster 3 on my car (all stock ignition on a '79 ZX) with no problems... I'm not sure if that helps you at all, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
