    Also, do you have or is there a picture of how the wiring is supposed to be for the kill button. I want to make sure i get all the wiring correct.


    These pictures might help as it does get to be a bit of a rats nest when it’s all together. As mentioned, each coil has to be wired to the correct set of points. If I replace the original primary wiring, I use 18G tin coated as it is flexible and solders easy when joining the points, coil, condenser and kill switch together in one joint. Some shrink tube does the insulating.

    Here you can see four wires together to make one connection.

    I like your mag plate as it is clean and also has tabs to ground the primary circuit in the coil. Usually that wire is soldered to one of the mounting screws.
