Was checking up on ignition upgrades from Pertronix again and saw that they offer the Ignitor III for our vacuum dizzies now. Supposed to work like a box style ignition without the box(multiple spark, rev limiter). Did a search here and didn't see anything for that model. Anybody used an Ignitor III and have any useful feedback on or off a Porsche? Not looking for opinions on whether or not Pertronix belongs in our cars or not, just on the functionality of the Ignitor III. With that said, I know this may start a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) storm..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) OP here. I ended up canning the Ignitor III. Never ran it actually. I seem to remember that it wouldn't allow use of a tachometer without some extra work, or some other major drawback. Went to an Ignitor II and ran it that way for a while. Now still running the II, but switched to carbs and it is driving a 6AL Digital MSD box with appropriate additional bits(Blaster 2 coil, tach adapter, 8mm wires). I have no experience with MSD and D-jet, but I'd imagine it'd be okay. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
If you downgrade to a II it should run fine with D-jet. |
