One thing to keep in mind when choosing the size of your capacitor (Farads) is that the capacitor is very much like a completely discharged battery when the engine is not running so when you kick to start it, the capacitor has to charge up to at least 6 Volts (in the case of the PAMCO, higher for some other ignition systems) in a very limited amount of time. If your capacitor is too large, it may not charge up enough on the first kick and if you have your lights on, it will discharge before you can kick it again, so more is not always better when it comes to capacitors.
