Default 2 ltr Pinto Coil

Hello, I'm replacing the ignition system in my car with new parts as the look old and I have no papers of when they were last renewed.

I am thinking of replacing the current coil (probably the original one) with the Bosch GT40, If anyone has used these, do they make a decent replacement?
Anything I should know about with them?

Thanks,
James.

Just make sure it's the GT40R not the GT40T.
one is for points and uses the resister the other is for electronic dizzy.
My RS has a GT40R and works well.

Thanks.
I got the GT40RT
It's for points system and uses the resister.

Here's hoping.
