Are you using the foot starter switch or has it been converted to a key starter switch? You definately need a resistor. There are two wires to the coil one supplys full voltage for starting (to counter act draw from the starter motor), the second goes through the resistor for regular running.
LMK if you want a bigger version of the diagram. PM me and I can send you the large files.

I still have the foot starter switch. There is only one wire going to the coil now from the firewall. And then one wire from the coil to the distributor. Like I said, there are three wires out of the loom coming through the firewall from the ignition switch that are just cut and hanging. But it ran that way for a week.
Thanks for the diagram. I'm going to take a look at it and see what I can figure out.
