The optimal ignition components consist of factory engineered devices. The
principal behind the Tiger 581, is to utilize existing circuitry, high ratio
coils are undesirable because of the extreme loads induced to the primary
side of the converter. The 581 is supreme to any twelve volt device,
triggering mechanisms can vary, the Pertronix works well. The "gist" of it,
internally stores 400V, at a certain amount of energy, when triggered it
releases this stored energy into the ignition coil, with hardly any strain
on your ignition voltage it delivers at minimum, 40,000 volts to the spark
plug for a duration of 300 micro seconds. A brilliant spark is observed at
the plug, bright blue with no orange, the leading cause of burnt caps,
rotors and corroding spark plug wires. The significance is the ability to
generate this voltage with out any strain on the subsequent components.
Designed in the late 60's, the capacitive discharge systems out performs
most on the market. And for an extremely low cost. Half of the cost of what
an equivalent MSD system would run for. AL6 for instance, is identical to
the 581 specs, however the Tiger 581 has been around 10 years prior to the
MSD AL6. Decide for yourself, you cannot go wrong when choosing Universal
Capacitive Discharge System. Thank you for your interest with our company,
and truly, enjoy your holidays! Merry Christmas, Daniel L Sasser
