    I’ve had it work with the coils sliding around easily, but they work better if you can stuff in enough laminations until they fill the opening. Here are a couple of things to consider: The laminations often have, by design, paint, oxidation, or some other insulation on them. So don’t polish them up before you put them back in. Also, if you are using two single cylinder coils on one set of laminations, the coils should be from the same manufacturer and they should be oriented the same way. The ground wires should be tied together and grounded to the mag plate. The point wires should be tied together, then go to the points.

    Got pics?
