PerTronix Flame-Thrower Billet Distributor for Small and Big Block Chevy V8 Engines.
Accurate ignition timing and stable spark delivery are important for high-performance Small and Big Block Chevy V8 engines operating without vacuum advance systems. This PerTronix Flame-Thrower billet distributor uses integrated Ignitor II electronics and a Hall-effect trigger to improve timing consistency and spark energy throughout the RPM range.
Features and Benefits:
- Billet aluminum distributor housing
- Integrated Ignitor II electronics
- Hall-effect trigger operation
- Variable dwell control system
- Cobalt magnet trigger design
- Tempered distributor shaft
- Mechanical advance configuration
- Two-wire installation setup
Constructed from CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum, the distributor features a hand-polished finish and tempered shaft engineered to reduce torsional deflection at elevated engine speeds. Variable dwell control maintains coil saturation while reducing heat buildup during operation. Cobalt magnets provide stable trigger signals, and built-in spark timing compensation helps correct electronic delay at higher RPM. The distributor also includes reverse polarity and over-current protection along with a sealed upper ball bearing and oil-impregnated bronze lower bushing for durability.
