Just Want To Make Sure (PerTronix)

So I've read in the directions that you bypass the ballast...so I'm assuming that you just disconnect the wires from the ballast and splice em together...am I correct on this? Just don't want any wires burning up if I do this...

I have the PerTronix distributor with the ignition II as well as the Flamethrower II coil...

Thanks!
