Hi,

I have a hybrid setup where by I use the old points coil and a HEI dust cap w/stock hei coil.

I've been double checking the wiring and drawing some diagram's.

I need some confirmation as I've read a lot of the previous posts by doing an advanced search.

I have a 69 gto.

1) The pink wire on + side of the coil REPRESENTS FULL FOLTAGE WHILE the car is cranking over and then stops when it starts running - CORRECT Y/N ?

2) This pink wires routes iteself down to the starter - correct? Y/N

3) The black wire on my + side of coil is MOST LIKELY the resistance wire. I understand that once the cars is running and if I had a points distributor this wire would save my points from burning out.

I've put my RED test lead on the black wire independantly and touched the headers with the BLK test lead and it read 11.8V DC.

4) The kicker here is that there is a nice wire ran to the fuse box that is for the constant 12V+ and it reads 11.8V to as well. (wire removed from coil and tested independantly)

So here is my thoughts

1) It appears that the new wire (12V+ to fuse box) and the old resistance wire are connected to the + side of coil

2) I'm not 100% sure how to test resistance wire, I suppose the best method is to follow the wire back along through firewall and see where it goes ?

here is a diagram , if you say anything out of the ordinary please assist.
