It's been a while since I hooked up a dual fire coil. As I remember, it doesn't matter which terminal the ignition wire runs to and which one comes from the points, right?

Th only time it matters is if you are running a tach. Then the tach wire has to be connected to the same terminal as the points.

Hope this helps.

If you have an HD points coil, it doesn't matter. If you got a tach the pink and white wire go together. Some of the aftermarket coils have a + on them to indicate switched power and have to be hooked up like that to keep the spark jumping in the right direction. (Usually for CDI Ignitions)
