This seems like a knowledgible group so I have a question regarding ballast resistors. I have a 1973 W200 PowerWagon with a 360. Would someone explain exactly what the ballast resistor does, in simple language. This would include why if you connect it backwards, top to bottom, your engine will have no power.
Thank you,
