    The Pertronix 1263 Ignitor kit converts the 1980s Ford 6-cylinder Motorcraft distributor from breaker points to electronic ignition. It installs inside the stock distributor, runs on a 12 volt negative ground system, and delivers a stronger, more consistent spark for easier starting and reduced maintenance. Fitment is based on the original Motorcraft distributor (E4JE-12127BA), matched by the OE distributor number.
