I have done the pony motor coil swap on a Lauson T600. What you do is grind down both sides of the center lamination to 7/16ths. Then remove some of the upper laminations to fit the hole in the new coil. Reinstall coil/laminates back on mag plate. Check if flywheel doesn’t hit the coil or laminations. Use a dremel grinder to level the high spots of the laminations to clear the flywheel magnets. I use a felt tip marker to find the high spots. That John Deere coil was used in a 6 volt system and was used to fire 2 cylinders alternatively. They do work on the Lausons as they are an alternate firing motor.
