I would have to give RAB a C- on his thesis. He has a very good page of amps volts laws ect but you are still asking your original question.

Using a 6 volt coil points and condenser in a 12 volt system is ok as long as you use a 12 to 6 volt resistor. What is the part #? I do not know ask the parts man for a 12 to 6 volt resistor. Do you need another resistor inline with this one? I do not know. Some do some don't. Did you have one before? If so use it.

Using a 12 volt coil with your original 6 volt condenser is possible. The condenser is often over built and can take it.
Does your 12 volt coil need a resistor? This is a deep dark secret that only your parts man knows as we do not know your tractor brand or which 12 volt coil you picked out. Some 12 volt coils require a resistor and some do not. Some use one resistor but another will use a totally different resistor.

As to one over the other that is up to you. I like to use the 12 volt coil myself but I like electronic ignition also and that is more expense. The 6 volt system will work with the proper resistor.
