Coils of this type are still available from suppliers of
antique gas engine restoration parts. They tend to be more on
the small side than the large, but you might inquire further.

Try the advertisers in Gas Engine Magazine, PO Box 328, Lancaster,
PA 17603 (717) 392-0733. John Wanat at (203) 938-3771 advertises
custom made low tension coils for ignitor fired engines; he may
be able to help.

Enjoy !
