Not quite right, Patton -
CB = Contact Breaker (or points), which is the ground side of the circuit.
For positive ground, CB is equivalent to "+". For negative ground, CB is
equivalent to "-".

If I remember right SW = Switch side and CB = Contact Breaker side. I
think that means the polarity of the car would be what is coming from
the switch, and the oppisite out to the distrubutor. So on a
negative ground car SW=Negative and CB=Positive.
Someone please veryify, but I wanted to make sure my logic is right.
