The Lucas ballast resistor I have (ceramic, straps to side of coil) is 2.4 ohms.
I think you want the whole thing (coil & ballast) to have a resistance somewhere around 3.7 ohms.
There has certainly never been a concensus about Pertronix as many are using them with no problems so far. There does, however, seem to be a notable lack of threads with subject lines like "My points just quit working & I don't know why".
