I couldn't find a chart for this coil online. I don't believe I'm getting either charging or ignition voltage from this stator. I get 750 ohms on the ignition coil of the stator and just 1 ohm on the charging coil.

Actually, the alternator coil resistance is equal to or less than 1 ohm (0.5-1.0 ohm depending on temp). The wires on these coils are larger hence the resistance is very low. So yes, your reading is correct and within specs.
