Frank,

The HEI unit requires full voltage. The stock coil ran on 9V delivered
through the ballast resistor. The voltage may be even lower with the current
the HEI draws. Also, check the advance at idle and at higher rpm. Max
advance should be 32-36 degrees all in by 2500 rpm for best performance. Too
much advance can cause backfire.

Bob
