Hi Doug,
Other than (obviously) requiring a tuning change,it also depends on
whether your NST can fully charge the larger MMC. Most of these
simulation programs are designed to maximize the MMC size based on your
NST's voltage and combined current (with multiple NST's).
If you arbitrarily double the tank cap size, you may also need to
increase the NST current (or add another similar NST in parallel) in
order to properly charge the new MMC size. Or, you might be able to get
it to work by reducing the spark gap distance so that the gap will fire
at a lower voltage. Adding more NST current will increase the effective
power of the coil which should increase spark length. However, too much
current may cause your gaps to overheat and fail to quench... which will
reduce coil performance.
Try it out and see... :)

How Would the resulting performance of the coil be affected using a MMC of
