I recieved a flame thrower coil for christmas i have a 69 ss396 with factory gauges will i burn anything up by using this coil or is it ok to install this coil thanks for any help warren

If its the std 40k volt flamthrower your just fine,been running it on my 69 396 for many yrs.

That coil is bascially a stock rep coil with a little more umph,its got 40k volts vs stock gm coil at approx 32-35k volts,nice upgrade from stock but nothing wild.

I have installed the pertronics 40k volt coil on mult cars i worked on for people and its been a reliable stock looking/sized udgrade coil for my car and the people i installed it for on thisr cars too

But if its the 45k volt low resistance coil you have i beileve thats meant to only be used with the pertronics ign system so keep that in mind & chk it out if thats the coil you have.

thanks for your info scott you helped out alot I do have the 40k and the igniter plan on putting that on at a later time points are working fine thanks warren
