PerTronix Ignitor® Solid-State Ignition Systems

PerTronix Ignitor® solid-state ignition systems deliver more energy with greater timing accuracy. The secret lies in the trigger magnets, which spin with the rotor and operate a switching module that requires no external control box. These systems are immune to heat, oil, and debris—and install in about 15 minutes with only two wires to connect. They come with a switching module, hardware, and instructions. Ignitor® is an ideal choice for collector car restoration because it fits entirely under the distributor cap.

NGK V-Power Spark Plugs

NGK V-Power spark plugs offer economical performance for nearly any automotive application—and they're the only plugs with NGK's V-Groove technology. These plugs enhance ignitability, lower the voltage requirements of ignition systems, and have strong anti-fouling characteristics, while improving fuel mileage and acceleration performance. The V-Power plugs are also highly durable against electrical and chemical wear, making them long-life replacement plugs. Because of the V-Groove, the spark occurs at the edge of the center electrode—so heat is not absorbed by the electrode itself. This allows the flame kernel to expand quickly and efficiently for a complete burn and great performance. More than a hundred models are available, both universal and application-specific; order the plugs designed for fitment on your vehicle.

MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Sets

MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor spark plug wire sets feature a special helically wound core that has just 40-50 ohms of resistance per foot—but with an RFI suppression equal to a 1,500 ohm wire. In fact, each foot of finished wire includes 40 ft. of tightly wound copper for superior conductivity. This winding procedure, combined with a ferro-magnetic impregnated center core, produces an extremely effective Electro Magnetic Interference "choke." This choke, or suppression capability, keeps the EMI inside the wire where it cannot interfere with other electronics on your vehicle. A tough, 8.5mm synthetic/silicone jacket over an extra-heavy glass braid and dielectric insulator keeps the current guided to the plugs. Underneath the high-temperature boots, dual crimp stainless steel terminals feature snap-locks to ensure a secure fit. Each set comes with clip-on cylinder markers for easy identification. MSD's 8.5mm Super Conductor wire sets are available in custom or universal-fit applications, assembled or not, with a variety of terminal and boot end options.

Proform Street/Strip HEI Distributors

Proform's Street/Strip HEI distributors have a variety of improvements over stock HEI distributors, such as a 50,000 V coil, a premium hi-dielectric cap with brass terminals, both upper and lower bushings for added durability, a low-saturation ignition module, and no voltage-reducing ballast resistors. These units offer calibrated advance curves that are optimized for maximum combustion efficiency, and the elimination of detonation damage and throttle ping. The distributors offer longer-term durability and a higher voltage spark that permits a bigger spark plug gap, resulting in more power and reduced plug fouling. The Ford models' internal coil and module make it possible for Blue Oval owners to avoid the unsightly wiring of stock Ford electronic ignitions. By eliminating the stock Ford or AMC ballast resistor, you'll get more ignition voltage, resulting in an improved spark. Another advantage to switching to HEI is access to easily-found HEI replacement parts. The Ford units are also assembled with upper and lower bushings, an upgrade from stock distributors that only have a single bushing. They're easy to install by connecting one 12 V hot wire to the distributor, making them a quick performance upgrade.

MSD Pro-Billet Ready-to-Run Distributors

MSD Pro-Billet Ready-to-Run distributors are the perfect upgrade for weak OE electronic distributors, outdated points distributors, and large HEIs or DuraSparks. All that's required is to install the distributor in the engine, and connect three wires and the coil! A maintenance-free magnetic pickup accurately triggers this ignition with increased output from the amplifier, easily outperforming stock ignitions. It will smooth out the engine's idle, improve starting, and perform at a much higher rpm. The housing is machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum, using state-of-the-art CNC mills and lathes for a unit with no porosity or weak areas. For stability and endurance, an oversized steel shaft spins in a top-mounted sealed ball bearing, while an extra-long sintered bushing guides the shaft at the base of the housing. This shaft also receives a QPQ coating for low friction wear and resistance against corrosion from humidity and ozone buildup. The distributors feature MSD's adjustable mechanical advance, which allows you to custom-tailor an ignition curve to match your engine's needs. Most models are also available with a vacuum advance canister to help improve economy. Order the model recommended for your vehicle and engine application.

MSD Iron Camshaft Mounted Distributor Gears

MSD puts their years of experience to work in making these top-notch iron camshaft mounted distributor gears. Their high-grade ductile iron is micro-polished for a smooth and scuff-free finish, and then Melonite QPC coated to reduce friction and initial wear. Excessive clearance causes timing fluctuation throughout the rpm range, resulting in lost horsepower, so MSD also designed these iron camshaft mounted distributor gears for tighter mesh to the distributor gear.
