Bolters,

I'm looking to migrate from 6V to 12V. Can anyone provide a NAPA or equivalent coil to use with my existing distributor. Also, is it safe to assume I can use the same condenser?

Truck: 1947 AD, 216, 1-ton dual wheel

Thanks in advance.

Joe

If you are looking to purchase a 12-volt coil with the internal resistor which is what I use with my 235 I bought one of these. Their description should let you find a similar NAPA or FLAPS equivalent.

Jim Carter EL-158 this type of coil was on use in many applications until 1976 when HEI coils became common.
