Just installed the Pamco ignition on my freshly completed 277 engine. Hooked up things as required and triple checked everything. Made sure that no power was supplied to either "Green" coil or the Pamco unit until the plugs and wires were in place. Found that it popped the 10 amp fuse as soon as I fed power through it. I checked the coils and they read fine. While checking the green wires that lead from the Pamco unit and signal each coil, the left circuit reads full continuity to ground. The right circuit (green wire to ground) reads with resistance. Running the check again, with the coils disconnected, the fuse popped while only the Pamco unit was hooked up. First time using a Pamco system, but I'm fairly well versed with points, Boyer-Bransden, and factory electronic ignitions. I have PM'ed Pete, but see that he always recommends posting things out to this group as there is a wealth of experience here, and I do take into account that he's busy with other stuff. . Anything else I can check out or advise? Thanks!
