Engine is in. Everything is ready.
But I don't get any spark.

Coil seems to be okay. I need to know if there is anyway to test the mallory?

I am not getting any power to the plugs.

I have tried putting a timing light on the plug wires and putting the timing light on the wire from the coil to the mallory just to see if there is currant, which there is not...

I am getting power to the coil.

I am SO CLOSE!!!! I just need to get this bitch running.
