question on HEI wiring ??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I see the PO used a yellow or white wire from the original harness as a batt feed for the coil on the HEI. Is this enough? I read this has a resistor in it as well, could this be a cause of my stalling after it warms up? The wiring looks way too small and I believe it needs to be a #10 or #12 but it is way smaller than that and might be what originally powered the original coil setup.

As I am digging into this truck I am finding a ton of wiring nightmares. Any help is appreciated.
