Default Re: Coil Voltage ???

I don't remember ever hearing anybody say that a person should only use a performance coil . It is a matter of choice !!! Before trying the Pertronix flame thrower coil , I had never heard of anybody using one on their model A . The Pertronix flame thrower coils are offered in both 1.5 and 3 OHM like most other coils. I prefer the 3 OHM coil on 12 volts simply because it doesn't require the use of a ballast resister . Resisters don't look original on the model A and they get very hot.. I personally could care less what type coil that a person uses . Being my own man , I make my own choices . If the type coil that I use didn't preform flawlessly I wouldn't use it .
