the red went to the+ and the green went to the- side of the coil both red and green wires going to the coil. made me want to fire the old 67 up and take it for a ride damn snow!!!


you probablly allready now but so you dont make the same mistake i did, when i bought mine they told me to MAKE SURE I HADE A INLINE RESISTER. so i hooked it up to the allready resisted wire (factory 6772 coil wire) and it keept braking up so i just eliminated the resister ran tits ever since
