The 53 will have a "regular" coil. Just hooks up with a few wires. Regular On OFF or ON Off ACC ignition switch. No problem.
The only electrical gauges you have are the fuel gauge and Ammeter. You just reverse wires/cables here and there on a few components for Neg ground. Both gauges are useable in either neg or pos ground. 6V.
