PerTronix's Flame-Thrower Street/Strip HEI distributors will produce 67 percent more energy in the coil, and deliver twice the energy across the spark gap. Plus, they deliver misfire-free performance up to a minimum of 7,500 rpm, a 3,000 rpm improvement over most original HEIs. Each distributor uses a new aluminum housing, cast and machined from a strong but lightweight A384 alloy. High-quality bronze sintered bushings are installed, aligned, and bored for accuracy and extended mileage use. Features include an adjustable vacuum advance, a high-performance mechanical curve kit, aluminum housing, a high dielectric strength cap with solid brass terminals, a balanced rotor, and a centerless-ground shaft.

Experts agree that HEI ignition performance relies on a quality module and coil. Pertronix believes the combination of a great module and a great coil makes their Flame-Thrower HEI distributors the best. They've engineered the module and coil to work together to provide you with superior ignition performance on the street or track. Compare the Flame-Thrower high performance module and coil to an original GM HEI distributor and you'll find these improvements: * Operates without misfires up to a minimum of 7,500 rpm, nearly 3,000 rpm higher than most enthusiasts report with their original HEI * Produces 67 percent more energy in the coil * Spark breakdown time (the amount of time until the spark plug has enough voltage to spark) is 45 percent faster, resulting in more accurate timing throughout the rpm range * Delivers twice the energy across the spark gap (during a one-millisecond burn time) * Spark duration and more energy to the spark allow wider plug gaps (.050 in.-.055 in.), increasing flame kernel growth These are dramatic improvements, not just because of a great module and coil, but also because they've been designed to work as a team to produce these results. Models and options are available for applications from the 1950s and up.

PerTronix Flame-Thrower Street/Strip HEI distributors with HEI III modules reduce misfires and improve engine performance. These powerful energy sparkers feature a specially designed module—the HEI III—that delivers multiple sparks and adaptive dwell that maintains peak energy through the entire RPM range. Flame-Thrower Street/Strip distributors have a factory-installed performance advance curve and an adjustable vacuum advance. They offer operation without misfire beyond 7,500 rpm—nearly 3,000 rpm higher than most stock HEI distributors. Order the model recommended for your application. Additional features: * Integrated digital rev limiter with LED feedback for precise RPM setting * Peak current level is reached just prior to spark for maximum energy without the heat buildup, increasing coil performance and module reliability * Adjusts spark timing at higher RPM to compensate for the inherent electronic delay * Senses startup and increases energy for quicker, easier starting

Flame-Thrower Race HEI distributors from PerTronix produce 42 percent more energy in the coil, with 46 percent faster spark breakdown time. This allows 48 percent more peak current to reach the spark plug, compared to their Street/Strip HEI distributors. That's an enormous improvement over stock HEIs and most aftermarket HEI distributors. A specially designed vacuum lockout mechanism prevents timing adjustments that change rotor phasing, adversely affecting the burn time and efficient fuel combustion. The rotor plates are TIG-welded to the mechanical advance mechanism, preventing high-rpm distortion and improving mechanical reliability. Each distributor uses a new aluminum housing cast and is machined from a strong, but lightweight A384 alloy. They're supplied with a high-dielectric strength cap with solid brass terminals, a balanced rotor, and a low-resistance center coil brush. Also included are nylon rotor hold-down screws and a factory-installed, high performance mechanical curve kit with precision-machined weights and a center plate. A hardened, machined steel gear is standard, along with an electronic module and coil combination that excels in the 6,000 to 8,500 rpm range. These distributors are great for both Circle Track and drag race applications where factory-type HEI distributors are mandated.
