Which Ignition Coils ?
20 Jun 2023 20:03
Easy question for some of you : I'm going to use a DS2-1 conversion, 7mm copper core plug wires with plain caps ( 0 ohms), BR8ES resistor plugs, with a "Wookie" relay added for the coils. What should I use for ignition coils to go with that combination?

Dynatek says DC7-1 coils.

An old Dyna S instruction sheet says to use ignition coils that are at least 3.0 ohms & I contacted Dynatek years ago and they said to use the green 3.0 ohm coils with the Dyna S. From an old reply by loudhvx the stock points coils (4.0 ohm) work fine with Dyna S, so maybe the 5.0 ohm will be okay as well but those might be for points ignition. ??? ps: dynatek's info is horrible.

Aslong as the resistance is "higher" rather than lower you won't overload the Dyna as the current flow will be smaller

Thanks. Another consideration is mounting them.
For the green coils on a KZ650-CSR I made brackets from 1-1/2 x 1-1/2" angled aluminum.

Thank you guys. Green 3 ohms it is.
Martin, I agree the dynatek website is terrible. That's where I looked first, but couldn't figure out an answer so then I asked you guys.
