That makes a lot of sense, Ford moving the coil from the divers bell distributor to above the block with the advent of the crab distributor. It has to be a lot cooler up there. Your bypassing the resistor to start a hot engine is interesting too. I hadn't heard of that before but reading some of the info on hot rod and Ford Flathead V8 websites, that is not an uncommon fix/modification for improving the hot starting of these engines. Some even rig a permanent bypass switch to easily enable this function. All good I guess as long as you return the switch to the non-bypassed position after it starts! Cheers,
