Pertronix 1285LS Crab conversion
Hi Guys,
I am interested in reading more about these 1285LS conversion modules for the crab distributor. I searched on here and not much has been posted for a couple of years. My set up is 12volt neg earth and alternator. Stock 59A . There was some discussion about needing 1.5 ohm Coil and 1.5 ohm resistor, but some disagreed with the need for the resistor. What is the latest suggestion for these units? thanks, Dave |

Pertronix recommends full 12 volts to the Pertronix trigger unit.
Use a 1.5 ohm 12 volt coil. Last edited by Kahuna; 08-08-2018 at 10:22 AM. |

Great thanks guys,
some of the earlier posts were misleading (back in 2013). It appears to be an easy conversion. Dave h |
