I ohmed the coil and resistor last night, both of them cold. The coil measured 1.6-1.7 ohms of resistance between the posts and the resistor under the dash measured .5 ohms. I did notice that one of the terminal nuts on the resistor was loose so I tightened it. It was late at night so I didn't drive the car in order to test the ohms of the coil and resistor when hot.
Also, here are a couple of pics of the distributor and coil. I'm new to flatheads so please forgive my ignorance.
