Pertronics ballast resistor removal question

Slowswinger said

I installed a pertronics 2 on a slant 6. There are two blue wires in one plug on one side of the ballast resistor and two brown wires in one plug on the other side of the ballast resistor. When removing the ballast resistor for the pertronics unit do both brown wires get connected to both blue wires or does one of the blue wires and one of the brown wires stay connected to the ballast resistor for something else?

Lets say your ballast resistor is laying down where there are to terminals at each end.
Basically you just want to consider it like there is a wire for the two top terminals, and a wire for the two bottom terminals.
Connect the two wires that go to the two top terminals together, and the two bottom terminals together.

This is crude, but just figure you want to bypass the red coils in this pic.

I don't know enough about Petronic. Does it replace the OEM ignition module ? Yes
Does it include a E coil that will operate on full 12 volts ?

No, just the module that triggers the spark of the coil.
But even the original style coil can run with a Pertronics unit without a ballast resistor due to the low dwell time.
HEI coils can be used with the Pertronics unit also.
