U cooked ur coil? Have u found the cause of this failure? Seems u have pulled to much current through it then? Did the coil need to have a ballast resistor in cct? Did u fit a ballast resistor to it?

GT40 is what i run on both cars.

Does anyone know if the bling gold Lucas ones are any good? or worth the money?
