Can't use the "S" wire on the starter relay as that's a START only signal so your ignition would only have power when the starter was cranking.
Is this a Unilite, or other electronic distributor? Or a points style?
I would think you could utilize the same Red w/green wire that is on the positive side of the coil, but that would be specific for the Unilite I think, if they want you to use a resistor. The wire is a resistor wire, so there is no visible external resistor on our setups.
Or do the instructions indicate they want the full 12v going to the distributor?
