As to the coil question, check a wiring diagram. The coil does not ground to anything. If you painted the mounting bracket(as it was originally) you will have no problem. The outer casing of the coil

You sure can change down to 1st on a Sprite by double clutching. I've had to do it with the racecar at Morwell Hilclimb. The only problem is the shudder that runs up your spine when, while you were l

The sole disadvantage of the A+ block is that it is a "thin flange" block. On the other hand, it has external ribbing and more metal in other places to make it stiffer than the standard sprite block.
