What does it connect inside?

My guess would be the - side of the coil.
1975 C10 Silverado LWB, 454CID, TH400, 10bolt 3.42
11MPG Downhill w/tailwind (but there ain't no hills here)

 Yup that the way to go but remember that the wire from the ignition is a restor wire and you need to change that so you have a good 12V to the dist.
