1989 Jeep 360, new coil, need resistor?

Working on a 89 grand wagoneer w/ a 360. The connection for the coil is odd, and in bad shape. I opted to replace it with a coil with traditional post on it

I picked a 1979 Cordoba coil. I thought it would match the ignition system close enough

On the coil it says "use external resister)

I know there's alot of debate about that, cannot get away with no resistor on this?
