Ignitor Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit

The PerTronix 1381A Ignitor is an electronic ignition conversion kit engineered to replace original mechanical breaker points in Chrysler 8-cylinder engines. This kit offers a significant upgrade in reliability and performance by utilizing a Hall Effect integrated circuit triggered by rotating cobalt magnets, eliminating the need for points that can burn and reducing wear on moving parts. The module is epoxy-molded for enhanced durability against environmental contaminants like dirt, oil, and moisture, ensuring consistent operation. This conversion kit provides a 2:1 improvement in current fall time over traditional points, leading to increased coil output. It delivers twice the voltage to the spark plugs, which can result in increased horsepower, improved fuel economy, and extended spark plug life. The design ensures stable timing without requiring adjustments, and it does not have a rev limiter or multi-spark feature. The kit uses 20-gauge SAE wire with two ring terminals and is compatible with 1.5-ohm coils. Designed for 12-volt negative ground systems, the PerTronix Ignitor 1381A is legal in all 50 states and Canada (C.A.R.B. E.O. #D-57-22). It is particularly ideal for restorations due to its ease of installation and ability to maintain the original distributor's look. The product is compatible with various Chrysler distributor models, including the 1838xxxx-3656xxxx series 8-cylinder engines, and specific applications include Chrysler 300, Cordoba, Imperial, New Yorker, Newport, and Town & Country models, as well as Dodge 330 and 880 models from 1962-1975, provided they have a single point distributor. Users should verify fitment with their specific OE distributor.
