pertronix conversion



I have a problem with the pertronix coversion I installed in my 383 distributor.
The installation instructions are messing with my mind.
One says after installing the conversion and pulling the wires and grommet through the distributor, to install the red wire to the positive side and the black wire to the negative side of the coil.
Yet further on with the map enclese with the diagram, it shows running the red wire to the hot side of the ignition and the ballast resistor wire running to the positive side of the coil.
Which way is the right way.
It sure as hell won't start with running it to the ignition switch but it has no power with it running directly to the coil.
Help please.
I don't want to go back to points but will if I can't figure out the problem.

Thanks
Bill Harrison
