I have the Pertronix with the Flamethrower coil installed on my 1966 coupe with 289. I have found it to be very forgiving as to the way it is wired. At first, both module and coil were wired through the resistor (pink) wire. Everything worked fine. Then I learned that the module wants to have the full 12 volts so spliced and ran a seperate wire from near the ignition switch ahead of the resistor. Still works fine but I believe the module will last much longer this way. As to the coil, stock coil needs to be wired through the resistor, Flamethrower can stand the full 12 volts but will also work through the resistor. Any way you hook it up, it beats points.
