1951 350 Bullet - Which plug cap?

Hi

Trying to get my old bullet running again and need to replace the spark plug cap.
I think it still has the original cap on there - Lodge - and its not looking so good

Do I need a resistor or non resistor cap?

Thanks

The lore says non-resistor/surppessor plug cap for magneto ignition. If your magneto (magdyno on that one, presumably?) is really healthy it might cope with a resistor type, but if not it will make starting harder.

Thanks Adrian - Non resistor type it is then. Don't need anything that will make it harder to start :D

+1 to that, especially the black and yellow-sheathed racing stuff.
