For a 2 cylinder , 2 stroke engine, you'll need to 2 coils.
I'll try to go back and find the links for the wiring of the timer and the coils.

I don't think that an Identification of your Bridgeport is available just from the the number and model, if you post 4 side photos I can probably get you some info !if you have Trouble with posting photos-- click on my name at left for email address--- I'll size and post them !

Came out of a lake?

You might want to keep it immersed in fresh water and flush it periodically. Lake water can have odd effects at times. I've seen a large steam engine frame scab and crumble from lake exposure. Something in the chemistry of the water did it. Definitely pressure wash it or soda-blast it first to clean the crud off so the flushing action can reach the metal.
