The traditional ignition system in a classic car often causes numerous issues. Mechanical distributors wear down and become less accurate over time. While replacing the standard points with an optical eye or magnetic ignition set-up is an improvement, it doesn't address the wear on the advance mechanism, distributor shaft, and bearings within the distributor.

123ignition offers a different solution. It comes in its own aluminum housing, which maintains a classic appearance but houses high-tech electronics inside. This allows your ignition system and engine to perform better than ever before and run as smoothly and reliably as a Japanese sewing machine.

One of the standout features of 123ignition is its maintenance-free timing. The moving parts, such as original points, centrifugal weights, springs, bearings, and the vacuum diaphragm, have been replaced with a single moving part: the central shaft with the rotor. The internal electronics provide the right advance and optimum dwell angle throughout the rev range for maximum spark energy and performance. There is no wear that can alter the timing of 123ignition - once it is set, you won't have to worry about it again.

123ignition also offers 16 user-selectable electronic advance curves, which can be easily selected with a switch located on the side of the housing. These advance curves are based on the curves prescribed by car manufacturers and allow you to get the best performance out of your engine.

Some other benefits of 123ignition include a smooth engine torque curve, an attractive original look, reduced emissions, improved starting, simple installation, a variable dwell angle, better fuel consumption, easy timing with a built-in LED, and spark balancing for less noise and more power.
