Do you see any ID on the housing that ID's the DIST as being a PERTRONIX FLAMETHROWER? Their cataloging is very confusing (and I have three levels of remedial reading in high school).

If yes, they recommend straight BAT VOLT to both module and coil. You want an oil filled FLAMETHROWER II coil unless the MODULE is IGNITOR III.

You are working with a 12V NEG conversion?
