<VV> Yet another Pertronix Ignitor question

[pkw@peachgrove.com]

After much research and listening to all sides of the argument, I am
planning on installing an Ignitor in my 66 Corsa.  My question pertains to
the following tech article:

The author insists that the red wire go to a separate +12V source rather
than to the plus terminal of the coil.  What say you all?  And my apologies
if this has already been answered.  I figure it probably has, but not when
I was reading, and the archives are painful to search through.
