Default Tecumseh lawn mower engine.

This has nothing to do with RC gas engines but I have a 1965 Tecumseh lawn mower engine with no flywheel.
I was wondering if I can convert the magneto ignition to a 12 volt automobile coil and a 12 volt battery. I would be using the points that came on the engine to energize the coil.
I have every thing that I need except the spark plug wire which goes from the spark plug to the coil. It seems like this would work.
What do you think?
