Product Description

While it’s the perfect coil to go with the PerTronix Ignitor breakerless ignition, our 40,000 volt Flame-Thrower canister coil can benefit virtually any distributor type inductive system. Its higher voltage allows largerspark plug gaps for added power, smoother response and better fuel economy. These coils are internally resisted so installation and wiring is drastically simplified. Our oil filled coils offer great heat control for street driven vehicles, while our epoxy filled coils provide superior winding support for high vibration environments in off-road vehicles and boats.

5.0 out of 5 stars Together with Ignitor system transforms starting, November 13, 2010

This review is from: PerTronix 40011 Flame-Thrower 40,000 Volt 1.5 ohm Coil (Misc.)

This coil together with their Pertronix Ignitor point replacement system transforms starting for older engines with conventional point ignition. I have used these in an inboard boat and an old Ford with the same great result. Just have some trouble then setting the timing with the old timing light. For some reason, the light no longer seems to work properly with the electronic ignition installed.

Second purchase of this particular coil and it has provided great performance for me on a 351W Ford, and a 350 Chevy. I like this particular coil and the associated Distributor. I give it 2 thumbs up.

This review is from: PerTronix 40011 Flame-Thrower 40,000 Volt 1.5 ohm Coil (Misc.)

The first one of these I got was a 3 ohm, the box said 1.5 and I ordered a 1.5, so somebody pulled the old switcheroo. After getting the right one it worked great. I put this on a 65 Mustang with 302. I also installed the Pertronix Ignitor 1. Took a few minutes. But I had to run another wire with 12v from ignition to the coil rather than use the pink resistor wire in the old mustangs.
