I'm thinking of using a Lucas sport high output coil in my 80 B. The
info in the catalogs tells me that the ballast resistor must be
removed. Where do I find this beast? I have the standard electronic
ignition mounted to the fenderwell but I don't see anything between the
existing coil and the electronic ignition box. Is it inside? What does
it look like? Any help will be greatly appreciated
