Before buying and installing a Lucas sports coil, I want to make sure that
I know what I need to do to get it to work.  If I understand the directions
on Skye's web page, I need to:

1) Swap the coils
2) Run a (white) wire to the + terminal on the new coil
3) Open the spark plug gap

Has anyone done this conversion and have any specifics to offer?  I'm
wondering about the size (diameter) for the new white wire, where it
connects, how wide to open the spark plugs, and anything else that might be
important.  Did the new coil make much of a difference?

Thanks in advance.
