If you use a 3 ohm coil, you can delete the ballast resistor.

Ok how do you find out if you've got a 3 ohm coil?It's just a bosch gt40. :D

Or get a Pertronix coil. They list resistance values on their spec sheets. You can down load the pdf from their website. www.pertronix.com
I am running the 60,000 volt HEI style. They make them in (3) different ohm ratings for racing applications. I am using part #60130. Click on the red link below my name to view the coil.
