    Newby here. Fresh rebuild and am trying to start the beast. Wanna make sure I have the wiring correct. Positive from battery to starter. Positive to positive on coil. Negative to distributer. Does the condenser go on the positive or negative? Wiring diagram doesn't show it.

    Condenser inside distributor goes to the points. If you're talking about the condenser mounted with coil, it goes to positive terminal. This condenser is just for radio noise suppression and may be omitted.
