Ignition Coil
I have an old Delco Remy coil, embossed "238" "B-R", which I'd like to use as a backup. Can anyone tell me what it was originally used in, if it used an external ballast, and if possible, what the internal resistance is.
Thank you.
Thank you.

The reason for the backup coil is the Flamethrower II coil, which I'm using with my Ignitor II trigger and MSD 6AL ignition unit. I don't scare easily, but I'm hearing too many horror stories to discount as cases of improperly wired or improperly matched coils. There has to be something to all of these failures, as where there's smoke, there's usually fire.
