Forgot to mention, the original Wico condensors are a wee bit off in terms of their capacitance rating, when used with the new 50s OMC coils. As I said, I have been running mine that way for several years with no issues. If you used your Elgin every weekend this way, you may burn the points a little over time…. but for the occasional user it works great. Trying to mount an OMC condenser on the Wico mag plate is tricky…. you could end up with a mess! I’ve did 3 Elgin’s so far, and all run good.
