Thanks Bob, No I dont follow the Ford boards much so appreciate the info. I guess it boils down to that particular coil and its quality, current and heat range, OF WHICH I ADMIT I HAVE NOOOOOOOOO KNOWLEDGE and may have spoken out of turnnnnnnnn.

If experience or specs show that coil needs ballasted that 1/2 ohm shown ought to do the trick. Assuming, however, if the coil can be used at a full 12 volts AND CAN TAKE IT WITHOUT OVERHEATING then the spark energy would be less if it were ballasted.

It cant hurt to be oversafe I reckon and use the ballast, we cant really say unless we had detailed coil specs n data which we dont have grrrrrrrr

Yall take care, thanks again Bob
