Nope. Both those other coils are designed for 50v games, they're much weaker than what you already have. The replacement Williams mechs, other than the eos, should have no strength difference compared to the original mechs in blackout.

Quoted from rcbrown316:

Thanks Zac. You just saved me a bunch of time. The sfl-19-400-30-750-DC does indeed show as the stock coil as i look it up on marco. I was just looking to get the same type of performamnce gain as I did on flash by swapping in the entire assemblies...without swapping in the entire assemblies. I made a few changes to the switches and springs and think i have adequate power for now. More power is better though. Any ideas on how to achieve that considering the current situation?

Modding in extension springs is the only real difference you can make here with the mechs... You won't get a big difference like on flash since Blackout already has newer style mechs compared to the EM ones in flash

Quoted from chuckwurt:

Just change everything but the coil. Keep that stock. I just finished a blackout with WPC full assemblies and the game rips.

I don't get this logic. There's nothing (besides the extension spring) that will make any difference in the play between these old mechs and a wpc mech. If you've already rebuilt the old mechs, why would you buy new mechs? And if you haven't, why spend extra on new, non original mechs? There's no need to put new mechs in a game that already has a single piece baseplate
