    Some of the conversion was easy, and some I worked way harder than
    should have been necessary!
    Got the rest of the mag together today. I ended up cramming two .1 mfd
    caps in an old condenser can, mounted where the original condenser was.
    That reminds me, I need to order some .20, or .22 axial caps again.
    I got rid of all the soldered wiring joints, (as they were like the MS-38
    shown) coil to points, condenser & kill post, which will make taking it apart
    easier, if needed in the future, like if my conversion doesn’t work!
    Also put the powerhead back together today, which brings up another issue,
    but I’ll start a new post for that.
