How Hot Should My Ignition Coil Get

[CudaChick1968]

FYI slants have the coil vertically mounted under the alternator.

Thank you! Didn't know that. :-D Learn somethin' new every day! I've never had one.

Done the ballast bypass thing before...burned up coil more than once. Not a good idea on stock type ignition system.

stock ignition is ok, stock coil not so much, even a blaster wont hold up, has to be a 3 ohm.

Ok I think I know what I need to do. I need a start 12 volt to my coil like from the starter then I need a voltage from the resister that is dropped down to keep it going. Am I understanding this rite?
