"lots of coils that will work with the system"

Yes, but to my knowledge none of them have the correct post spacing that will allow the original wiring socket to be used without "butchering" the OEM wiring or making an adapter. I made two adapters using four ring lugs, short lengths of wire and bolts of the the correct size and thread to match the old coil posts. One ring lug of an adapter goes on a post of the new coil (secure with a nut and washer) and the lug at the other end of an adapter gets the bolt with the bolt thread projecting upward/outward (again secure the bolt with a nut and washer). The wire runs between the ring lugs. Insulate the wire and ring lug shanks heavily with shrink tubing or self-fusing silcone rubber tape. Repeat for other side of coil. Position the two adapters so their projecting bolt threads make the correct spacing for the orignal wiring socket. Secure and support the OEM wiring socket against vibration (otherwise the adapter wire will fatigue and break) by using plastic wire ties as required.
