...and I thought the resistir was to keep the (stock)coil from overheating
when
running. The resistor is bypassed when starting to get full spark but it
can't
handle 12volts all the time.

i thought the ballast resistor was for the coil power draw. i was always
told
when you convert to electronic (pertornix, msd ect) the resister can go
because the coil isnt pulling power from the points anymore. the
electronic
box is powering the coil. but hey, i dunno. i got a pertronix on the
ordered
list. along with the rest of the parts for my aluminum 196.
