Just to cover the obvious, your battery is still connected positive ground; and your ignitor module has a black wire linked to the original white wire; plus a black/white to the "SW" or "-" terminal of the coil, correct?
I'll adapt some old instructions from Pertronix on how to test their module, for the positive ground configuration:
Connect a voltmeter (they suggest a quality moving coil voltmeter like the Simpson 260 VOM but I think a digital multimeter will do) set to the 50v DC scale (200v for the DMM) to the two leads to the Pertronix, with the positive lead on the black/white wire. Ground the coil high tension wire. Crank the motor and observe the voltmeter.
If the meter constantly reads 0 volts, there is probably an open circuit somewhere. Typically in the wiring, but it could also be the coil.
If the meter constantly reads between 1 and 3 volts, the ignitor module is probably bad and must be replaced.
If the meter constantly reads near 12 volts, probably one of the leads to the Pertronix is bad, or the module itself.
If the reading dances around (with the analog meter, the pointer would rapidly swing between about 1.5 and 12v but a DMM will probably just jump around), the module is working and the problem lies elsewhere.
Personally, I just put the points back in. Engine runs fine with points, so the Pertonix is relegated to the parts bin, for the next time I have nothing better to do than play with it.
