    Is there a 12v you can use with points that doesn't require a resistor? Thanks in advance

    I don't know but you usually want the coil to get full voltage for starting and the resistance (wire or ballast) to be on the coil power when running so the coil don't overheat. I use a ballast set up in this way as a backup ignition (run MSD 6T normally).
