Time permitting this weekend I intend to convert the ignition system over to 12v. I have read up elsewhere on MLU about this but I have one question. I am fitting new spark plugs, should I regap (increase gap) the plugs to handle the extra jolt? And is the condensor OK with the increased load?
Thanks all,

No need to change the gap on your spark plugs as you're going to install a ballast resistor if you use the original coil, right? I'd install a condensor from a 12V to be on the safe side. Good news, 6V points work just fine on 12V systems. Hope this info helps.
