Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question: What vehicles are compatible with the PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit?

    Answer: The PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor is designed specifically for vehicles equipped with Prestolite 8-cylinder ignition systems. It is compatible with multiple makes and models, typically found in classic cars and some trucks. This kit replaces the original points and condenser ignition systems, offering improved reliability and performance. Users often install it in vintage muscle cars, hot rods, or even daily drivers, significantly enhancing ignition timing and fuel efficiency.
  • Question: How does the PerTronix Ignitor improve performance compared to traditional ignition systems?

    Answer: The PerTronix Ignitor provides superior performance by converting to an electronic ignition system, which eliminates the mechanical points that can wear out and misfire. This conversion leads to a more accurate spark timing, resulting in better engine performance, reduced emissions, and improved fuel economy. Many users notice a smoother idle and an increase in horsepower, making it an excellent choice for enthusiasts looking to enhance their vehicle's power and efficiency.
  • Question: Is the installation process for the PerTronix Ignitor complicated?

    Answer: Installation of the PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor is straightforward and can typically be completed by those with basic mechanical skills. The kit comes with detailed instructions, allowing you to replace the points and condenser without requiring specialized tools. Many users have successfully installed it in under an hour, making it an ideal upgrade for DIY enthusiasts who wish to enhance their ignition system's reliability with minimal hassle.
  • Question: What are the benefits of switching to an electronic ignition system like the PerTronix 1581LS?

    Answer: Switching to an electronic ignition system offers numerous benefits, including enhanced reliability, improved ignition timing, and lower maintenance needs since there are no components that wear out like points. Furthermore, an electronic system is less prone to misfires and can significantly increase fuel efficiency. Drivers often experience smoother acceleration and an overall more enjoyable driving experience after upgrading, particularly in older vehicles that originally came with traditional ignition systems.
  • Question: Do I need any additional components for the PerTronix Ignitor installation?

    Answer: Typically, no additional components are required to install the PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor. The kit includes everything necessary for a standard installation, including the Ignitor module and relevant connectors. However, it is advisable to inspect your vehicle’s current battery and wiring condition before installation. For optimal performance, some users might consider upgrading their spark plugs or ignition coil at the same time, but these are not mandatory for the Ignitor to function effectively.
  • Question: What is the difference between the Ignitor and the Ignitor II?

    Answer: The primary difference between the PerTronix Ignitor and the Ignitor II lies in the technology utilized for enhanced performance. The Ignitor II features a more advanced circuitry that helps increase spark energy and improve ignition amplitude, which leads to better startup reliability and overall engine performance. Additionally, the Ignitor II offers improved noise suppression, making it suitable for more performance-oriented applications. Owners seeking maximum efficiency often opt for the Ignitor II for their high-performance builds.
  • Question: Can the PerTronix Ignitor Kit replace existing electronic ignition systems?

    Answer: The PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor is specifically designed to replace and enhance original points-style ignition systems, particularly Prestolite configurations. It is not intended to replace existing electronic ignition systems, as doing so may result in compatibility issues. Owners of vehicles already equipped with electronic ignition should seek alternatives tailored to their specific setup. For optimal performance, transitioning from points to this Ignitor is favored by many classic car enthusiasts looking for a reliability boost.
  • Question: How does the ignition timing affect engine performance?

    Answer: Ignition timing is crucial for engine performance as it dictates when the spark occurs relative to the position of the pistons. If the timing is off, it can lead to decreased power, poor fuel economy, and increased emissions. The PerTronix Ignitor provides precise timing adjustments that enhance the combustion process, ensuring that fuel burns more efficiently. Enthusiasts often report noticeable improvements in their vehicle’s throttle response and overall drivability after installing this Ignitor.
  • Question: Will the PerTronix Ignitor work with my aftermarket ignition coil?

    Answer: The PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor is compatible with many aftermarket ignition coils, provided they operate within the required specifications. It is important to use a coil that matches the voltage and resistance parameters recommended by PerTronix to ensure optimal performance. Many car enthusiasts pair the Ignitor with high-performance coils to achieve maximum spark energy, contributing to better performance and efficiency. Always refer to the installation manual and specifications for best results.
  • Question: Where can I buy the PerTronix 1581LS Ignitor Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit?
