I have a 51 chevy 1/2 ton with a 235 swap and a 12v conversion done by previous owner. The engine runs pretty good BUT as I was checking everything out, I touched the ballast resistor on the firewall coming from the coil.And Dang! was it HOT!  I dont remember them getting that hot on a conventional 12v ignition system. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | they do get hot enough to burn ya, that's why they're heavy ceramic
