followup comment on coil

[Colin J Brodsky <cbrodsky@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm sure Jerry Casper has never ever in his entire life left a key on or
forgotten to turn off a light, or had any lapse of memory whatsoever, but
guess what - it happens to those of us of relatively low mental capacity.
Had to go out to get some gas and run some errands and forgot that I had
left the key on while I was messing around with the engine.

Anyway, that being said, from some of the more constructive responses,
sounds like the ballast resistor will manage the problem so I'll do that.
My '63 actually has a later 232 engine that I built from scratch and put
into the '63 Classic so the starter/relay is same as a '66 model and may
not be quite right with the '63 harness.  I had a '66 Classic with 232 that
I drove for 3 years in grad school.  In that car, I had used the same
generic non-resistor coil and never had problems with it heating up, so
perhaps they changed sometime between '63 and '66 - something I never
checked through on the '63 conversion.
