7-8mm conversion done.......coil?
I've completed the 7mm - 8mm conversion on my wires, cap, and rotor. Now I need a coil, but which coil is the right coil. I am thinking of using a previously suggested pertronix ignitor.

I have had good luck with my Accel Super Coil. My father in law also runs one on his 73 F100 with a 390 in it and a Mallory electronic ignition and has had good luck with it also.

Bozo74, I converted my truck to the big cap and larger wires and added the Pertronix Ignitor at the same time. I am using a Mallory ProMaster coil and autolite platnium plugs gapped at 40. The "Old Bug" runs like a top. I believe the biggest improvement for the money was the Pertronix Ignitor. That one change made a huge and immediate difference, in startup and idle.
