That does sound like a good plan, but at this point I am ready to throw in the towel and put the points back in. Tonight I starting putting the stock coil back in and the positive stud broke off. I drove to Advance to get one and tried it. Still no start.

Looking at this diagram, it looks like I need to attach the red wire to the ignition switch side of the ballast resistor. I guess I don't understand how to do that. The resistor is about as far from the distributor as you can get as it is over by the DS hood hinge, so the wire will not reach. The red wire has a round terminal end and the resistor has plugs...I am not sure how to get it hooked up.

I knew I should have left a running car alone.




Like someone said above, follow the instructions that Dayclona posted. Easy as pie. Exactly how I did mine, took all of 15-20 mins to hook up. Afterwqrds, you may have to turn the dizzy left or right slightly because of the pertronix slightly changing the phasing, a very easy adjustment.
