My wife threw away all my old TWOZ magasines to make room for the Grandkids, now that I need them Im out of luck. anyone have a copy of TWOZ when they did the coil conversion using two 6 volt can coils? By the way you might want to start stocking up on some of these, out here in calif they want 65-85 for a single 6 volt coil, I had to order a pair from Illinois to get a fair price, even with shipping they were cheaper than one coil out here.

Are you looking for the actual article, or the source of the parts? If the latter, Gerry Richman is the guy who sells them. I can get the contact info if you need it.

I was looking for the artical to make sure I had all the wiring hooked up right. I used the bottom half of an old Lincoln coil to mount my coils on, just cleaned out the holes in the bottom and ran a piece of Packard 440 wire in there and soldered it in place, used some silicone to glue the coils in place and hooked up the wires, I used UC14 coils off an old frod tractor since they dont need resistors and will run on straight 6 volt and now get a nice bright blue spark that will shoot at least 1 1/2 inches.
Much eaiser starting and alot more power, now I have to change it out to disce brakes so it will stop as good as it runs. No more being stranded thanks to A&S products, I hate that jerk and have a coil to give him where the sun wont shine.
