PerTronix LU-181A Details

The original Ignitor module is ideal for restorations. Ignitor Module Kits are extremely easy to install and fit into your original distributor to maintain your stock look. No additional ignition box is required keeping a clean look under the hood.

Ignitors are available for most distributors that came with mechanical breaker points and will cover AUTOMOTIVE, MARINE, INDUSTRIAL and AGRICULTURE applications.

For the specified Lucas eight-cylinder ignition-conversion application.
Fits inside the specified original distributor to maintain a stock-looking engine bay.
Electronic ignition conversion replaces mechanical breaker-point operation.
Self-contained design requires no additional ignition box.
Designed for straightforward installation in the matching distributor.
Eliminates routine breaker-point replacement for a lower-maintenance ignition setup.

Despite the website clearly stating that the part was a direct replacement for the Lucas part, it was incorrect. I have now wasted three weeks of my time, the purchase price, $50 shipping and £34.00 taxes for an incorrect part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
