    Ballast resistors

    The ballast resistor is wired to the key switch when you are in the start/crank position it allows full battery voltage to the coil to get quicker cleaner starts. When you release the key to the run circuit the power to the coil is then reduced by the ballast "Resistor" to 5.5-6V...

    Ballast resistors

    There was a time....sounds like a lead in for a C&W tune...when Pertronix used Andover Coils, but as with most American Company's they decided to take the technology to China to get it made Cheaper, we were extremely dissappointed with the test results on the new Chinese coils from Pertronix...

    Ballast resistors

    Pretty simple, the stock ignition stuff all runs on a 5.5 -6V input, more power in more power out. Gas isn't getting any better, more additives, more Ethanol and lower octane. As these changes continue the fuel gets harder and harder to fire and requires high spark outputs, you just can't...

    Ballast resistors

    Yes you can, but it will not come even close to the output of this new coil from Andover. There's a lot more to getting output than simply buying a coil with a built in resistence. The components in the ECU that give you a performance ignition system that can achieve high RPM, Hold Timing...

    Ballast resistors

    Nothing works with the Orange Box. The Orange box is a 5.5-6V system made in China, it will start retarding the timing at about 4800 RPM and by 5200 will have retarded it by 8*, the output will drop to about 16KV to the plugs and it start dropping cylinders. So the answer it yes it will run...

    Ballast resistors

    It's always been well known that the ballast resistor is the weak link in a stock mopar ignition system, by eliminating the ballast we eliminate the weak link. As far as the coil goes it's 100% American made out of top quality American made components and I think it's obvious how that compares...
