Worth a try if its cheap - the trigger units for all of these are relatively simple and the controllers are usually based on a common GM "four pin module". The fancy studded cap - comes from an International Harvester V8 about '76 and so on.
The "real" GM HEI 4 pin controllers read the coil resistance and regulate dwell accordingly - so low OHM coils work well with them. Make sure the ignition feed wire is capable of high amps - and full voltage from the generator or alternator, which ever you run. Also make sure it is fully powered when the starter is actuated.......
As mentioned earlier - the high voltages the coils are often rated for - is actually their insulation rating - not the volts produced. These dwell control distributors are focused on getting the maximum charge amps into saturating the coil (low resistance units are faster to rise) - so when she fires the spark energy is VERY HOT - not necessarily high volts (if it isn't needed).
