I'm rewiring my '72 650, and have it all figured out fine except for the coil to ignition connection. The bike had a 1-into-2 coil and PAMCO installed when I bought it. This is my first XS, so I'm not familiar enough to ID the coil to know which wire is positive/ground/etc. I've attached a photo of the setup (sorry for the quality), and would appreciate any help.

UPDATE: I tracked down the mechanic that did the service on the bike prior to me buying it, and he immediately remembered which bike it was, what coil it was, etc.

The black/white wire is power, the blue wire is the signal wire from the PAMCO.

Side note: If you're in Austin or the surrounding area, Limey is THE MAN.
 
The Pamco uses a dual output coil. These coils are not polarity sensitive. You can hook them up either way. Power in on one side. The Pamco to the other.
