    I’m not sure if an “universal OMC” coil would be a candidate for a coil
    swap or not. I’m guessing your coil laminates are 5/8″? If so, they’d
    have to be machined down where the OMC coil would go on.
    Hopefully someone that’s tried this swap will chime in.

    It is 5/8″.  Wondering if any Johnson/Evinrude coils can be used?  There seems to be plenty of those available.
