Our Weekend Wrench project car is in need of a general tune-up, and we're going to be installing some new parts, including the Pertronix Ignitor 1. Delivering twice the voltage to the spark plugs, Ignitor electronic ignitions will increase horsepower, improve fuel economy, and extend spark plug life. The Ignitor system is designed for use with most point-type coils, but optimal performance is achieved when used with Pertronix's Flame-Thrower® 40,000 volt coil.
Begin this tune-up with the Ignitor and Ignition Coil installation, and then follow Bill's step-by-step process to install and replace a variety of other engine parts and perform a tune-up that will have your 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973 or 1974 V8 Mustang with Single Point Distributors running better than ever!
Note: The distributor cap in this video now comes in a gray finish instead of black.

I love how that fuel filter replacement was completely unrelated. A perfect example of one of those "Eh, may as well while I'm here" moments.
One thing I noticed is you used the factory resistor wire for the points that drops voltage.
Pertronix calls for a full 12 bolts from the ignition from what I’ve seen and heard
Wanna make 3 notes real quick:
- For people with added tachs - they have a lead attached to either negative or positive end of the coil, just reinstall the lead and leave it be. All it does it mark the collapse of the coil field, which happens with points or with pertronix, it's just the trigger type that's different but it will not affect it.
- You do not need antiseize on steel plugs going into cast iron heads. They will not seize because they are the same metal. Antiseize only goes on the threads if you have dissimilar metals
- If you forget or unplug all the wires on the dizzy, the firing order is stamped on the back of the factory manifold and you can go in that order. Passenger bank has cylinders 1-4 front to back, driver side is 5-8 and the firing order for OLD 260/289/302 is 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8. It has changed in later years (80s and 90s) and on 351 and the 302 HO to be 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8
I did this years ago on my 68 when pentronix first came out works good with a mild cam
Awesome, found it. Big project coming up on my 65 coupe. This will help!
That is on our list to do sometime in the future.
That is a video we are considering doing in the near future
I thought you where suppose to remove resister wire at key switch whem you did this conversion
Wow it does look like that in the video! It is actually right next to it and did not get caught under the ignitor.

Good video. But I do have a factory tach in my 1967 Mustang. What to do?
Adam we already did a T-5 conversion video! take a look at our older videos and you will find it.
im looking to put a 4 bbl carb on my 289. do you think you guys could do an installation video?
Can i buy the Ignitor in Australia for a 200 ci motor
Can you guys please make a video on how to install 2014 GT500 spoiler on a 2014 mustang
Awesome, Bill. Any chance you guys will be doing a T-5 conversation video in the future?
I have the petronix but the wire won't feed through the hole.. Did you drill yours and not show it?
Great video, Bill. Do you need to re set or adjust the timing when you install the Petronix and a new coil?
No you do not have to but you may find you can advance it a little more with the Pertronix.

What did you do about the voltage resistance wire? Did you leave it as is or did you bypass it?
When I did my ‘66, I just ran Anne’s wire from the ignition switch to the coil, and taped off the original resistance wire. (Just in case) worked well for me. Just my $0.02.
Will this affect an after market tach or will the tach perform normally?
Aftermarket tach will not be affected.
is it necessary to use the new connector on the power wire going to the coil or can I still use the original?
+Alex Perkins As long as you have a good connection is doesn't matter
+Bill Tumas thanks man. love the products and appreciate the videos
Yo quiero uno
Hey Bill, any chance on doing a 3 point seatbelt installation? It'd be awesome!
InstaBlaster.
Is there one for a 6 cyc?
Daniel Arzola
Yes there is!
Can you put a link for the spark plugs, fuel filter and wires you used I have a 1966 mustang 289 thanks.
LAZY ASS
does the distributor rotates clockwise?
4 years later but for future travelers: CCW. Firing order is 15426378
I hope you saw that you installed the ignitor on top of the black lead wire.
I think that was a ground also ????
I did notice it too, good eye
What was the thickness of the feeler guage. My kit did not come with the guage.
They should do a FI upgrade.
what is the brand watch?

Great video but annoying, brain-frying background music made me want to switch off more than once!
