This HyperSpark kit simplifies upgrading the ignition on a Sniper 1 EFI-equipped Ford 260/289/302 small block engine. Paired with a Sniper 1 EFI system, it creates one of the easiest ignition conversions available, needing only four connections. The included plug-and-play main harness requires a single connection each to battery+, battery-, switched 12V, and fuel pump power, with pre-terminated connectors and a built-in 40A relay powering every component.

Designed for Sniper 1 only; the new main harness in this kit retains the same lead wire colors, so it replaces the original Sniper 1 harness and coil driver rather than being used alongside them. The distributor uses a cast gear — consult the camshaft manufacturer before installation to confirm the required gear material.
