Testing coil resistance is the BEGINNING of testing an ignition coil.
If it won't pass a resistance test, the coil is defective. If it DOES pass the resistance test,
it may still be defective.
Ideally, you would look at the ignition voltage pattern on an oscilloscope. Most folks don't have access to a 'scope, so the next-best thing is to use a sub-$15 spark tester calibrated for HEI ignitions.

If the coil can reliably fire the spark-tester, AND passes resistance tests of primary and secondary windings, and windings-to-ground...it's probably good.
When the internal insulation begins to break down inside the coil, an ohmmeter often won't "catch" it--the ohmmeter is testing at very low voltage, but in operation the coil is subject to extremely high voltage. The coil can still work--but it's very hard on the module. As it gets worse, the coil won't have enough power to fire the plugs under heavy acceleration, but it might idle and cruise just fine.
