But im gunna ask anyways.... So I just got done putting my new (to me) sandcar all together. I finished up all the wiring tonight and went for the fireup with no luck, checked spark and nothing. this motor ran bitchin in the old car its a heads up performance built 2332. anyways I checked all the wiring and found that I connected the ignition wire to the wrong side of the coil. I swapped it and still no go so my question is did I fry the coil or the pertronix??  :banghead: :banghead: thanks guys in advance im running outta time.

Check the pertronix module inside the dizzy. look for burn marks on the inside. If it looks like this, you cooked it.

You probably cooked the pertronix module, they're picky little pricks.
