Default Crane Hi 6 Wire Question

Hi there

Looking to run points only as a trigger, no condenser on my 69 gto.

Curious for those who have hooked these up before, does the small red wire just go to fuse box 12V switched and remove or leave the stock points resistor wire going to the + coil?

I attached the manual below, it says box wants 12V but then says it's OK to just take the points wire resistor wire and power the Crane box with it? Which we all know is less than 12V?? I must be reading it wrong where it splices in.

Thoughts? I figure run red wire to 12V switched on spade on fuse box and remove resistor wire and wrap up tucked away around the brake booster.

This way the box gets 12V and the coil gets it's voltage from the crane box ( non trigger wires ) , it does mention later on in manual it will run down to 5 V.

White wire to points distributor which is black. connect it
green wire to stock tachometer?
