Perma-Tune – Ignition Control Unit (Part No.F6000325501PER)

Ignition Control Unit

from

$876.51
It is suggested that ignition coil be replaced when replacing this control unit. Installation Instructions By design, Perma-Tune ignitions make very little heat of their own. Wiring problems external of the unit will cause your Perma-Tune to get hotter to the touch than the other components under the hood. If this is the case we recommend you read the diagnostic instructions. The Model 911 increases spark energy three times that of the stock ignition system. This is why spark plugs will never foul again, can be set to .065″ spark plug gap and will actually recover from fuel contamination. The Perma-Tune system uses the points only as a sensor so they will generally last the life of the engine. Dwell is not a factor simply set the points to stock gap specifications and then adjust the engine timing using a timing light. The Model 911 Perma-Tune is designed to replace the stock ignition box and will bolt up and plug in to the same location as the stock system. If the connector on the box does not fit the car harness connector, you have the wrong box. If you have a turbo charged car, be certain that the speed relay has not caused the previous ignition box to fail before plugging in the new box. If you are installing a 911SC engine in a 911 body, use the model 911EX Engine Exchange kit. If you need a harness to install this ignition system, exchange it for a Model 911E Perma-Tune. Use the Plasma Drive Perma-Tune for late model Porsche engine management systems, hall effect distributors or after-market engine management computers. Use the Model MP Perma-Tune on magnetic pulse type distributors like the Porsche 917 or any other magnetic sensor. For Perma-Tune products,customer MUST call Perma-Tune directly @ 631-909-1011 PRIOR to claiming any unit as warranty. Or contact Perma-Tune @ for further information.

Perma-Tune – Perma-Tune Ignition Control Unit (Part No.F6000325502PER)

Perma-Tune Ignition Control Unit

from

$903.33
It is suggested that ignition coil be replaced when replacing this control unit. Installation Instructions The Model 930 6 pin Perma-Tune is designed to replace the stock ignition box and will bolt up and plug in to the same location as the stock system. The Model 930 6 pin is more than a replacement of the original ignition system; it is a performance upgrade boosting the spark energy by a factor of three. This increase in spark energy improves combustion efficiency resulting in more performance and less unburned fuel in the exhaust. Spark plug gap can be increased to .065″, (except on turbo charged cars with special spark plugs that cannot be re gapped) and solid core, unshielded copper spark plug wire can be used without causing radio noise problems. For Perma-Tune products,customer MUST call Perma-Tune directly @ 631-909-1011 PRIOR to claiming any unit as warranty. Or contact Perma-Tune @ for further information.

E3 – DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas (Part No.E3.46)

DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas

from

$7.49
The Spark Plugs are the product of years of fundamental research in the combustion field. The unique patented electrode configuration of these new The spark plugs increases the amount of combustion pressure created during each power stroke of an engine, which results in a marked increase in power output, fuel economy, and reduced emissions in all gasoline engines. E3.46 is a 14mm, 0.750 reach plug with a gasket seat. It fits a wide variety of applications from the 60s to early 90s, especially import. E3.46 is widely stocked in automotive retail stores. The automotive plugs have three legs securing the Diamond FIRE electrode to the shell. This allows for excellent heat transfer, and helps to create more turbulence in the cylinder. The patented Diamond FIRE side wire is proven to increase power, reduce fuel consumption and improve hydrocarbon emissions in long-term use.

Product Features:
  • E3’s Diamond Fire edge to edge ground electrode provides maximum performance with increased efficiency and a faster more complete burn.
  • Smoother Acceleration & Idle – The faster flame initiated by the The spark plug results in a more complete burn of the ingested fuel charge. More pressure is created against the piston more fuel is put to work
  • Energy – Power output improved up to 6% on average in the typical operating ranges. Results will vary.
  • Efficiency – The “diamond shaped” side wire electrode projects the combustion spark in a way that more quickly ignites the air/fuel mixture, thereby creating a significantly faster and larger flame kernel. The result is that more fuel is put to work durin
  • E3’s patented Diamond Fire Technology provides a cleaner burning combustion, which translates into fuel savings and reduced engine carbon deposits
  • The Spark Plugs are pre-gapped at the factory and cannot be adjusted.
  • Wide Compatibility: The E3.46 spark plugs are 14mm with a 0.750 reach and a gasket seat, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from the 1960s to early 1990s, especially for import vehicles.
  • Widely Available: The E3.46 spark plugs are widely stocked in automotive retail stores, ensuring easy availability for consumers.
