I recently installed the Accel coils which are also 3 ohm. The instructions specifically say DO NOT use the ballast resistor.

If they are the green 3 ohm Dyna coils then you need to get rid of the ballast resistor

Best be safe and check the ohms on the primary side from each double coil. Turn your multimeter to the lowest ohm rating and connect the wires to the flat connectors on the coil.
If the reading is 3 ohms +/- 0.5 ohms, you are OK. When getting rid of the ballast resistor, just connect the three cables coming out of the white resistor block to the single in feed of the resistor.
