Mark,
The XR3000 will run at full 12 volts (resistor wire bypassed). The XR700
may overheat and quit if the resistor wire is bypassed. I run a XR3000 with
the resistor wire bypassed. I removed the original ballasted coil and
installed a Lucas sport coil. The car runs very well and cranks easily. I
run the spark plug gap at .035
Hope this helps,
