I checked a book I have called "Tuning Lucas Ignition Systems." In it,
there's a schematic for a ballasted system showing a lead from the
ignition switch through a ballast resistor to the coil and one from the
starter solenoid to the coil. When cranking the starter, the lead from
the solenoid will short around the ballast resistor.
If your distributor requires a ballasted system you could wire it this way.
