Glad to hear it! You can leave the ballast resistor in there, and that will depend on the coil you are using as to whether it requires a ballast. Just make sure the hot (red) wire for the pertronix goes to a true 12V switched source, and not the downstream end of the ballast.

I goofed this once and it kinda ran, but backfired and stalled.

Eppy25,

As Lou pointed out you can buy a 3 ohm coil from them. I did and tossed the ballast resistor. They have a couple of different 3 ohm coils. I am using the HEI version. If you would like to see some pictures of the change, click on the red link below my name.
