Post subject:  HEI install with dual ballast???
Ive been reading the how -to on the HEI install, and it says to connect the wires of the ballast resistor together. Will this also work with a dual ballast?
I know that one side has different resistance than the other, and didnt know if had to be wired differently. BTW, this is on a '79 B-100. Also I have installed a Blaster 2 coil, and all the recommended tune up parts I've learned about from the gurus on this site. Also, the coil I got came with a ballast resistor, but it's only a single. What would I do in this situation to use the ballast that came with my coil? I have 2 Green wires together on the upper right terminal, a Pink wire on the upper left terminal, and a Red wire on each of the bottom terminals. Any ideas??? :shock:

I have the same situation (dual ballast) and will be interested in the responses to this.

You'll be fine to just proceed the same way as if you had the single ballast resistor: Unplug both connectors from the dual ballast and connect them to each other. It's just that you'll need two jumper wires rather than one. You can use 1/4" strips of brass or make up jumper wires from short lengths of #14 wire with 1/4" male spade terminals on each end.
