alright ya'all thanks for all the help, ive got the pertronix ignitor, flame thrower coil, msd wires and champion plugs gapped to 0.040"...the thing runs awesome....especially when i jump the coil to the battery...seems there's too much resistance in that resistance wire to the coil... so i need to find a keyed 12v power source to bypass that resistance wire to the coil...
anybody been up this creek? any idears..thoughts, recommendations would be helpful im not too keen on the wiring stuff....thanks again
