it says "works with stock coil", and also as you noted, "6- and 8-cylinder distributors require a coil with 1.5 or more Ohms primary resistance"
you'll be fine with your stock coil.
OK, fine. I will borrow a volt meter or an ohm meter anyway. Hopefully the kit will arrive today and I can put it on tomorrow. It is supposed to be about 37 degrees F Wed.... If it works with stock coil, great; if not I guess I have to buy one from them.
thanks!
