69 911T non cds whats correct coil?

Finished engine rebuild.Cranking engine over and spark is really,really weak with old bosch blue coil.I've heard that they are notoriously bad anyway but what is correct replacement?
Not ready ($) to go MSD route yet so whats my best other option?
Thanks for any opinions on this!

Hello, never had issues with Bosch blue coils, Anything stronger may require a ballast resistor, But check the voltage at the coil while cranking, depending on the strength of your electrical system you may be experiencing a voltage drop while cranking and that will definitely affect spark energy, Also make sure you have a good condenser,

Hope this helps, lou
