(click here for more information)

Type Usage
 Standard Ignitor or
Lobe Sensor Ignitor

Normal driving  w/stock or mildly modified engines.  Good performance potential - customer cars run the 1/4 mile in the 11s with Standard Ignitors.

Ignitor II High performance street and racing.
Ignitor III

High performance street and racing where multi-spark and a rev limiter are of benefit.  In addition to high RPM benefits, multi-spark will also enhance low RPM performance on engines with big cams.

Note 1:  Some late 1956 Y blocks got the revised distributor configuration used in 1957-74 distributors and will take the 1281 Ignitor.    Please send us your distributor number if you have a late 1956 model so we can be sure of the proper Ignitor.
