I have good used OG Bosch type 3 coils for $15, plus shipping. 

It's not rocket science, but you will want to look around for an old 
dwell/tach somewhere (ebay?) and read up on it a bit. Either way, 
it's best to have a timing light, too. I recommend that you get one 
that has the inductive pickup, but I've never needed (and don't own) 
one with the advance measuring ability.
