 Hello Ben, there was a discussion a while back about plug gap with the Pertronics on the old board.  As I recall a gap of .035” was recommended which is where I have mine set and all seems fine.

Also, read the instructions that come with the Flame thrower coil you get.  The version I got from Delta (I believe it was the flame thrower II) called for removal of the Ballast resistor located on the fire wall.  To do this you can just remove the wires from the ballast and connect them to each other OR if you have the electrical schematic study it and you’ll see that you can remove the start up ignition wires which bypass the ballast when ignition key is in the start position. With the new coil and the ballast resistor out the higher starting voltage circuit is redundant. Removing it simplifies the wiring under the bonnet.

Just something to consider,

Brian
