I suspect the coil may be drawing too many amps. Nothing to be gained by that coil on your application.
If you have the original coil, try putting it back on.
The correct coil is critical. If there is a resistor or resistor wire, it will need a 1.5 ohm coil. If no resistor it will need a 3 ohm coil.
The wrong coil, too much resistance, will cause weak spark and hard starts.
Not enough resistance will cause short point life and overheat the coil.
A proper matched coil will run about the same temperature as the surrounding components. If it is noticeably hotter, too hot to hold, something is wrong.
But even a mismatched coil won't cause the condenser to fail.
The biggest problem with condensers is poor out of the box quality. The point type ignition components are slow selling dinosaurs, little profit to be made from them. The production has been handed over to the few manufacturers willing to grovel by with antiquated, poorly maintained equipment.
You might get the Pertronics kit out, give it another try...
One other thing comes to mind, the condenser case must be well grounded. If the screw is stripped, and it comes loose, it will not work.

Corn products were harvested for grain, and for ensilage (we always just called it 'silage'). Silo Filling Time On dairy farms back in the 30's and into the first half of the 40's, making of corn silage was done with horses pulling a corn binder producing tied bundles of fresh, sweet-smelling corn plants, nice green leaves with ear; the
