I don't even have to look at the page you linked, I have been to Lou's (Loudhvx on here) site so many times I just about have it memorized 
If you have a mechanical timing advancer (and I think the 81 does) then it should work.

Here's a recent thread with a link to a restore page that has a pic of the
home-made igniter (basic design by loudhvx). KZR thread: my project thus far - click .
Here's the direct link to the restore page - The Davo-cycle .
And here's a pic of the igniter from the website. JMK. <br><br>Post edited by: JMKZHI, at: 2006/12/14 12:02

Obviously, it can be made a lot neater-looking, but that ugly prototype has been working for over a year.

I think I use 14 gauge to the coils and the ground for the HEI module. For the positive wire you can probably use 16 or 18. The pickup wires can use just about anything.
