Just have conservitivley set safety gaps and a reasonably set main gap. Then
you should be fine. I was scared to go resonant for a long time, but haven't
had any problems in systems that I have. If you have a rotary gap (I don't)
then use a static gap as well just in case. I sure like what a res cap did
for my output!
