Hmmmm.... I've never seen a coil marked "for use with or without external resistor". In my limited experience they're either one or the other, but never both!

My recommendation would be to put the old coil back on and stick on a NEW ballast resistor. (Ask for one for a 70's era Chysler car - NAPA # 13ICR or equivalent). I've had this setup running on my Super M with the same set of points for 15+ years.

Personally I wouldn't spend the $$$ on electronic ignition. The stock ignition - even after a 12 volt conversion - is more than adequate for your tractor. (OTOH once you go electronic you'll never need to mess with the points again!)
