    PerTronix D1272 Details

    Race HEI units use all new components and feature an electronic module and coil combination that optimizes spark energy and peak current to the spark plug in the 6000 to 8500 RPM range. Compared to our street or strip version, race units produce 42 percent more energy with 46 percent faster spark breakdown time allowing 48 percent more peak current to reach the spark plug. This abundant energy doubles the spark intensity during the critical one millisecond of burn time. Great for both circle track and drag race applications where factory type HEI distributors are mandated.

    • For the specified HEI Pontiac V8 distributor application.
    • Built with new components for the specified race HEI application.
    • Module-and-coil combination targets spark delivery in the 6,000-8,500 RPM range.
    • Designed to optimize spark energy at high engine speeds.
    • Designed to increase peak current delivered to the spark plug.
    • Intended for circle-track and drag-racing applications that call for factory-type HEI distributors.
