<< 
 If you keep the 6V coil you will need a balast resistor between the ign. sw
 and the coil. If you use a 12V coil, no resistor is needed. The factory 12V
 systems of  55 and later used a 6V coil  >>

There is a difference between 6 and 12 v coils.  A six witha ballast resistor 
will get quite hot.  Get a real 12 v coil and use a ballast resistor.  A 
bypass for starting will help in damp weather
