and the coil?? the current thru the primary winding is controlled by either the points dwell or the ingitor dwell, and whatever limiters they have. (jaycar HEI has a nominal 5A coil current limit but you can adjust it higher ). having lower resistance plugs will not affect the primary coil winding, but will reduce the effective resistance of the secondary coil winding. since the secondary coil 'releases' the energy induced by the primary coil, i don't think there would be any negative effects in using a non-R plug. also compared to the spark plug gap, and also the gap between rotor and dizzy cap, if you have a dizzy, the spark plug resistance is not that great a change.. (and leads!! they are around 5-20k ohms anyways, so an extra 5k ohms is not that big, unless you have coil per plug and copper plug wires.. but you would have sooo much RFI then!! like an F1 motor ) ramble, ramble...
