[Roadsters] distributor/coil question

Hi.  in the really excellent wiring diagram for 66/67 roadsters that slowboy
did (again, my thanks!), the coil is show as power going to the negative side
of the coil, then the positive side applying power to the distributor.

is this correct?  the car runs just fine this way with points, but is an issue
with a pertronix.  will it run ok with the power going to the positive side of
the coil?

the pertronix wants the power to go to the plus side.

is anyone using a pertronix?  if so, could you tell me how it is wired?

thanks

my car is an early 67 with the ballast resistor removed.

if anyone wants the pdf of either the 66/67 that slowboy did or the pertronix
diagram I will be happy to send them to you.
