randoo...all good advice here..as you can see we are all passionate.

I have had good luck with EI on my '77 C-30, ever since I added a ballast resistor in front of the coil. I am sure that one of those threads Neil directed you to has the ignition resistance calculator.

I am currently running about 10.5 volts at my coil (+) post with a couple ohms of resistance (ballast resistors are cheap from NAPA or similar) in front of the coil.
