Coil questions

Had this problem previously when the 351 was in the torino, but where does the positive wire to the coil go? And how many volts are put out to it? I can't try to start it now as I don't have an exaust system on it, but I would like to get it done

Thanks a lot Johnny, you don't happen to know which wire on the switch it is do you?

Thanks a lot.

looking in the book and looking at my old column-- on the switch the row of terminals closest to the side with the mounting bolts (drivers side) it wound be the 2nd terminal up from the firewall end if you have the switch off and can look in at the terminals it's marked I1 (you could only see that with the wire connector plug off) the 3rd terminal up on the same side is the bypass (12volts at start) terminal. as far as the wire color i don't know, i would have to try and look under my dash.   hope this helps

Thanks guys this helped a lot!

Ok I dug around this morning before leaving for school, and found the wire!! It was cut off underneath the high rise intake and tested it with the switch on and off and it works! So this wire kicks on 12 volts then constantly runs 8? And 8 is the right amount for this coil? I had a light tester, I will test the voltage when I get home.
