I actually have upgraded my coil to a Pertronix's Flame-throwerIII and IgnitorIII module in the distributor. It is a smart electronic ignition and senses the lobe without a magnetic ring like the old Igniters used. It works real well. And in the instructions it says to eliminate the resister and just splice the wires together.. I left the resister but stuck all wires on one pole so that two greens and the brown were all on one pole (esentially spliced). I plan to do the some with this new wiring harness once I get it functional. The IgniterIII has adaptive dwell, Peak current levels prior to spark, Auto spark timing, senses startup and developes more energy for quicker starts, programable REV limiter, etc.
With that in mind I guess I can just splice the Brown and green that go to the resisiter to a 3rd wire to the + Coil and be done with all the green wires.
