PerTronix 40011 Details

The Flame Thrower canister coil is designed to mate with the Ignitor Electronic Conversion Kit, but can benefit virtually any distributor type inductive systems. Higher voltage allows larger spark plug gap for added power, smoother response, and improved fuel economy.

For ignition-coil replacement in compatible systems; confirm primary resistance and ignition-module compatibility.
Canister-style configuration suits the specified ignition installation.
Designed to pair with a compatible Ignitor electronic conversion kit.
Suitable for compatible distributor-type inductive ignition systems.
Higher-voltage design supports increased spark plug gap where appropriate for the engine setup.
Match coil resistance and ignition-system requirements before installation.

The PerTronix Coil is outstanding!

I would recomend thesew to anyone hwo asked. Have the black one installed on my original 1935 Model 38 4 door car with 221 Flat Head V8. Have the chrome version installed on my 1938 Chevrolet 2 door Buissness Coup with an inline 6. Both are very reliable. Nethier need a resistor unless your electronic ignition is over 5ohm.

I would not buy this product

Ohmed 4 different coils & none fully reached the required ohms desired by the instructions that came with the Pertronix ignition. Wanted to use the coil recommended to use with the ignition. Pertronix staff said it would work ok but I thought it should reach required ohms listed with the ignition.
