I have a used Accel Super Coil I can let you have for about $10 plus 
shipping, about $12 by Priority Mail. It looks a little bit rough but works 
just fine. They are also frequently available on eBay for much less than 
$40.

I will offer once more, if you will contact me off list, I will be more than 
glad to help you and save you a whole lot of grief and money.

I did some research and found the circuit I'd found online is basically OK. 
There are some things that need changing though.

One thing I'll do for simplicity is to make the pulse generator run off a 9v 
battery and produce an optical pulse which a receiver will pick up to apply 
the current to the coil. I did discover the ignition coils need a bridging 
resistor and capacitor combination to reduce spikes that might damage the 
power supply. Similarly a diode will be needed in series to prevent 
blowback.

I had to get a book on 555 circuits - I couldn't blindly trust the 
information I'd found online.

The ignition coil I have is marked E70. The packet has a barcode of 
841266025075. It was cheap and something I'll be using for testing. I will 
need one of the $40 accel supercoils to get my 50KV ionisation pulse - 
that's a different circuit however. I'll need a 25KV coil to charge the main 
capacitor though and that's what the 555 circuit is all about.

I've been on hold for quite a while what with not being so sure about a 
downloaded circuit diagram and because of all the add-ons and extra features 
people say it needs. I'm avoiding most of those by optically isolating the 
circuit. Thus, if anything blows, it won't be the control circuitry!
