What is the Secondary Terminal on the Ignition Coil!!???

So I'm pretty sure I fried either my new coil or my old distributor, and I'm testing for spark, resistance, etc...and in the Hayne's Manual it says to set your meter on low resistance and place the prongs on the PRIMARY terminals on the coil and it should read like 0.3-1.3....which it does, THEN it says to set the meter on high resistance and place ONE prong on the primary as done before...and the other onto the SECONDARY terminal and the reading should be 5000-7000.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE SECONDARY TERMINAL ON A 94 LT1!?

The secondary terminal of the coil is the terminal that the coil wire attaches to.

In this picture that Shoebox has on his website, it would be the big, silver terminal at the bottom of the coil.
