According to the information I have at my disposal, the coil has a RED/LT.GREEN wire originating ultimately from pin #11 of the ignition switch. the other is a DRK.GREEN/YELLOW originating at the Duraspark module.

There is also a PINK/LT.BLUE and an ORANGE/YELLOW running fromt he Duraspark module to the dizzy.
