Additional Features and Benefits

• Adaptive dwell maintains peak energy throughout the entire RPM range, reducing misfires while improving engine performance

• Peak current level is reached just prior to spark for maximum energy without the heat build-up, increasing coil performance and module reliability

• Adjusts spark timing at higher RPMs to compensate for the inherent electronic delay

• Senses startup and develops more energy for quicker, easier starting

• Senses crank orientation from either the distributor cam lobe or a PerTronix magnet sleeve

• Thermal clad surface mount construction for high performance reliability

• Memory safe function for user settings

• LED user feedback for rev limit confirmation

• Built-in reverse polarity and over current protection shuts down the system, preventing component damage

• Legal in all 50 states and Canada (C.A.R.B. E.O. #D-57-8)

Applications available for Delco • Motorcraft • Mallory • Mopar. Ignitor III technology is also available in all V8 Flame-Thrower Billet distributors or as an upgrade to existing Flame-Thrower Billet distributors.
