Could it be the same coil as a 9N Ford? Does it use one or two coils?

It does look a lot like two Ford tractor coils siamesed together . I have got some good leads , and a couple tips on running modern coils .

I thot the V12 used the same front mounted coil that the flathead V8s did. The distributor itself is different on the inside and the caps are different because of the extra cylinders, but the coil that mounts to the top of the distributor might be the same as the V8's. Ford guy (or dealers) ought to know.
