High Charging Rate. Found Voltage Drop Need Guidance Please

Sketch the wiring scheme you'e made.
Check it over and post it up.
There's different ways of executing 'wire around' whether its 'Crackedbacks' 'MAD' 'Nacho' etc.
With a schematic of what's actually on your car, it will be easier for both you and us.
Feel free to use any of the stock charging system diagrams I've posted as a starting point if that's easier.

Resistance - always checked with no power connected.
- Ballast resistor should be .5 to .7 ohms. Does that meter have different scales?

Stock Coil resistance, '73 Dodge FSM
About 1.5 ohms in the primary windings. Positive post to negative post.
From either post to ground should be open, infinte.
