re Wraith Coils to LOP.D.75673.

Our latest tests on ignition coils indicate that it is desireable to arrange the windings so that the ends of the primary and secondary coincide. We notice that on the latest drawing this is not the case.

As it is very important that the output of the secondary is up to the maximum on this car, we consider that this modification should be introduced as soon as possible.
