In the process of installing a pertronix 1181 in a stock 72 350. Directions mention with or without ballast resistor. I don’t see a ballast resistor. Believe it has a resistance wire instead. Would I just wire up as if it doesn’t have a ballast? Also has a condenser on the points set, but also another on the coil bracket. Would I keep this or eliminate it. Lastly has a stock 293 coil. Am I ok to keep using that?
