Default HELP!

I decided to install a pertronix ignitor in my car, and.... now my car won't start. I think my problem lies in where it connects to the ignition coil. My car is a 66 200ci. Everything stock. I don;t know the coreect terminology but where the red wire connects there is a plug thing that was originally there does that plug in again? Sorry I'm so new at this.

I saw that already but what I was hoping for is a picture of the ignition coil and how the wires are put on it. Thanks though.

If I understand you right, pull the black plugoff the coil and attach the red wire from the pertronix to that side of the coil, then put the black plug black on... tell us what happens next...
