Thank you yet again, Howard.
All three wires are in excellent shape. If I recall correctly when I put the starter back in, the Green wire that provides the by-pass for full voltage to the coil look a little crisp but that might be due to engine heat? When the ignition switch gets here I'll check for voltage after running the starter then leaving the switch in "run". As for the coil, I'm thinking of replacing it with one marked + & - as opposed to Dist & Batt because of the lingering polarity issues.

I also want to thank Packards1 for the tip about Vette Products carrying Delco Ballast Resistors. When I call I'll be sure to ask about the ohm reading.
