MSD Blaster Coil ok with otherwise stock system?

Buying all my ignition parts. I'm only interested in getting this car started and worrying about the upgrades down the road (EI) But I figured in regards to the coil buy a future-proofed one up front. MSD Blaster comes highly recommended for the EI Dizzy. I just want to make sure it's fine with a stock ignition, NGK Plugs, Points, Cap, Condenser and 7mm wires? EI would be down the road. I'm thinking zero issues (Plugs?) but I figured I would ask the people who have been there done that just to make sure.

TIA

Look at the amp specs .3 amps on most ( on their site)
Different models are different but only going to ruin points quicker now

It might be smarter to just use a stock coil for now, and upgrade the coil when you switch to EI. Each EI system has specific coil parameters.

Your engine will run fine with a good stock coil.
