I am not sure but isn't the AH using a resistor wire instead of a
ballast resistor?

Doesn't using a ballast resistor require two circuits; one for
starting (no resistor, hotter spark) and one for running (resistor
for cooler running coil, less erosion of points)? AFAIK, no Big
Healeys used a ballast resistor with requisite two circuits.<br>

<p>The Pertronix ignition (and many other electronic ignition
systems)Â usually needs a resistance of 3 Ohm. A lower
resistance may lead to failure of the Pertronix. A 1,5 Ohm
coil should be used together with a 1,5 Ohm ballast resistor.
If you use a 3 Ohm coil you will not need the ballast
resistor.<br>
