Got it.
Somewhere in the back of my mind I can hear MM screaming that I don't need to change out the original 72" wire, and I don't need no damn relay etc......but I get your point(s).
So the ballast resistor is what, 1.5-1.8 Ohm ceramic?
As you describe it, the Pertronix module would see the full 12v, but the coil would still be reduced to ~8v via the resistor. Coil says 12v (to be used with a ballast resistor). This would be using a stock coil...not a Flamethrower II, if I understand that setup correctly.
Also.....what is the condenser looking thing hanging of the coil? I'm thinking maybe a capacitor for radio static? Does that stay?
Correct? (and thanks)
