Unhappy Need Some Help Please-Pic Needed

I have a 1970 280S. I need to get a pic or 2 of the area where the 2 ballast resistors are mounted and the wiring connections between them and the coil. I let someone else work on my car to install a Pertronix system(turned out to be the wrong unit) and they have my ignition system more screwed up then a soup sandwhich. I want to set it back the way it was and start fresh. Thank you very much. Please forward the pic to me at dws@suddenlink.net

Sent you a pic just now.

On my 280SE, the forward terminal of the upper resistor is connected to the "15" terminal of the coil.

What do you have going where? Or did your installer bypass the ballasts entirely?
