Default MSD RPM module resistance values

Hey guys, long time no see...

I need some help and haven't been able to find anything on the web, although I used to have this information somewhere. I need a table of resistance values for MSD (and compatible) RPM modules... I need a couple of different ones for my bike, and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for TWO separate packages of these things (since the two I need would be in different packs).

Specifically, I need 11,000 and 11,100rpm modules. I know I can build them myself (done it before) if I can figure out the correct resistance values...

Can someone help out a former LS1 junkie?????

Well, it never fails... I found the info I needed 10 minutes after posting this...

For anyone who's interested: Desired RPM = Resistance (in ohms) + 1000.

A 6000rpm module should have a resistance of 5K ohms, 7300rpm would be 6.3k ohms, etc...
