to be honest i have never tried swapping the old with the new but i don,t see why it wouldn,t work with some minor re-wiring........keep in mind that newer coil/ignitor is a weak link as far as i,m concerned where as the older coils are almost bullet proof...something to think about and i,m guessing thats why the new coil/ignitor combe is much cheaper the just the old coil............................
