Proper coil for 12V system

[95476]

I am getting closer to firing up my fresh 59Y engine.
I am runnng a crab points distributor from Bubba.
What coil is recommended ?
I want to run one with internal resistance.
I have a Petronix 40611 with 1.5 ohm resistance here from an older project.
Will that work OK ?
I seem to remember an Echlin IC7 was what I used years ago but that was for 6 volts.
Thank you.

I found another post on the exact subject.
I took Bubba's advice and rdered the blue Bosch coil from Amazon.
Thanks Fordbarn.

Skip can wind any of the Ford 1932 to
1948 coils to 12 volts NEG ground if
you want to keep the Ford look. G.M.

Looks like you found your answer, you need around a 3.0 ohm coil.
