- Just a question on the ignition circuit. I've recently replaced the distributor, wires etc, and cleaned up some of the grounding circuits. Everything has been fine for the past couple of weeks. I end

- well, what i did was went out and bought a 12volt coil and took the ballast resistor out of the circuit all together. this will give you a stronger spark and a little more power and cleaner burning.

- I bought the Mallory Chrome coil, It came with a new resister much bigger than the factory one. My understanding is that with this new 70k coil you can still use the resister and get the added spark

- Craig, Depending on the coil and the ballast resistance value, you might get an improvement over stock, but if the coil is intended to be operated without a ballast, you won't get the FULL output of

- Ignition resistors are used to drop the voltage of points/contact distrubutor systems from 12V to 8V on average. When you crank your engine over, 12V is supplied from your key switch directly to the

- Don't agree with that. When you start you car the coil in a 12v system get's 9 volts opposed to the 12 volt it wants. In a 6v ballest system you get 9 volts opposed to 6 volts, produceing a much big
