OK...got the 406 fired up!!! cool.gif One problem I noticed right away was smoke coming off the ballast resistor.?? Got so hot it was burning the paint on the firewall..... :shock: Not sure what is going on. Here's what I have....Mallory Unilite with a Accel super coil...thats it. All wiring is from scratch...I wired it up like Mallory suggest....12v source to one side of resistor (12v wire off of + battery side through a switch), other side goes to + side of coil. I pick up the 12v source for distributor on the 12v side of resistor. Other wires from the distributor...one goes to - side of coil and one to ground. I made sure it was a good ground. Motor fires right up but resistor gets hot right away? Any ideas?? Thanks!
