They each have a unique wiring diagram and I'm wondering which one is correct. Perhaps the wiring was changed from 1955-1957? My question is in reference to the ground out wire that goes from the kick down solenoid to the distributor/coil. In one it goes from the kick down solenoid to the dist. In the other it goes from the solenoid to the coil. Here is a picture of both. 2 wiring diagrams Thanks, Brandon | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,094 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,094 | They are both the same. The wire is going to the connection for the points on one diagram, and to the coil on the other. But if you follow the wire, the connection is just on opposite ends of the same wire. It just grounds the points so the O.D. can engage.

It has a separate switch as a reverse lock out not used on later versions. Tommy is correct, they both end up on the (-) side of the coil.
