Mopar electronic ignition with 1.5 ohm flame thrower coil

I have the pertronix system in my old points distributor so my ballast is eliminated when I install the mopar setup do I need the ballast if not I have three loose wires instructions say green wire is not used black goes to coil ground and blue to ignition run on ballast where would I route the blue wire or do I need a ballast again

There are 4 wires AND GROUND FOR THE BOX,

1....Two wires go to the distributor
2....The ECU box MUST be grounded. Scrape around the firewall and box mounting holes, consider using dielectric grease, and use star lock washers
3....One wire (black?) goes to coil NEG. THAT IS NOT GROUND. It is coil switching, takes the job of the breaker points
4....Power goes to the "high" side of the ballast in other words "ignition run"

Unless the coil you are using specifically says "no ballast" run whatever ballast is recommended with whatever coil you have
