318, E-Coil, GM ignition module, Chrysler Distributor...need wiring help!
I wired the brown crank-wire to the trigger side of a relay, and battery power on the power side from the starter stud relayed to the coil.
During cranking the factory system works as normal, AND the ignition coil gets battery power off the starter cable. When crank is released,the starter quits and so does power to the coil thru the relay, and the relay de-energizes.
The Run side is as factory normal
There are a few milliseconds during the switchover from CRANK to RUN, when the coil gets no juice, but I never hear it in the engine.
Don't forget that the coil is pulling juice through the ammeter and bulkhead connector, so those connections have to be 100%. I spliced the ammeter wires thru the bulkhead, eliminating the spades.
I ran an E-core for about a year on just the factory 14Ga wiring.I don't think they need a lot of juice to get the job done.I thought about that and
Then I switched to the Accell sq.top, and upgraded the wiring thru another power relay, Cuz that yellow monster seems to like to pull some electrons. The literature that came with it IIRC said for use up to 6500, but mine has been happily buzzzzzzing along since about 2002, to over 7200.
