In reality, you can use just about any coil that you want to use as long as the primary and secondary resistance values are in range and you can figure out a way to mount it. All a coil is, is a transformer, and it steps up the AC voltage from the ignition (AC or DC CDI) to a multiple 1000s of volts. If you have the screw in coil and cap, wire switching is a snap. You can use any wire that you desire (even VW). However, what I try and stay away from is a resistor sparkplug cap. I NEVER EVER use them. They have a small carbon plug (that you can't see) in between the wire connection and the sparkplug connection point. They are designed to reduce radio interference. Do we care on our buggies - Not. I have measured some caps that had 5KΩ of resistance, and if this piece of carbon burns or makes poor contact - no or bad spark.
However, good job on replacing your wire. Sometime we need to a little R&D to get the most from our buggies.
