You didn't mention side mount vs. front mount, but I'll take a stab. If you have a side mount setup, with a properly functioning 12v charging system, and have a 12 to 6 dropping resistor, and the oem 6v roundcan coil.. then yes.. you can get an appropriate 12v coil and do away with the resistor.. I believe napa # MPEIC14SB ( IC 14-SB ) is a possibility.. I'm sure there are other performance coils out there you might use as well..
If you have a front mount oem 6v square coil, and the oem ballast resistor and a 12 to 6v resistor.. then you can remove both resistors.. get the 12v repalcement coil. Dell will usually recomend getting a 2 pack of radioshack 10watt 1 ohm resistors and twist the ends together in parallel to make a 20 watt 1/2 ohm current limiting resistor.. and add that inline with the new 12v square front coil, as a way to make its life a bit easier... Dell has a radioshack part number.. but it escapes me at the moment... I was doing good to remember the napa part number for the round can coil... Make sure your new side mount coil is installed correct polarity... ( neg goes to the distribuitor on your sidemount coil with a neg. grnd electrical system .. ) I'm sure others will chime in if I've left something out. Soundguy
