Re: Sierra Coil 18-5181 OMC

[Mumbles]

Out of curiosity, were the Sierra laminations riveted together or stamped together? There’s more than one manufacturer of the coils over in China and you may have got lucky and found a set which didn’t have the fitment problems I went thru on a ’59 JW. I like the screw on terminal as the German Prufrex coils have this and it helps to hold the hi tension lead on.

Someone else had mentioned that the coils had a hot fire so maybe swapping them onto the old laminations will become the accepted way of installing them.
