Replaces Entire Breaker Plate - Never Adjust Points or Timing Again!
Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit for Centrifugal-advance 8-cylinder Mallory Distributors
The Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit replaces breaker points and condenser in the distributor to provide rock-solid reliability. With the Hot-Spark electronic ignition, dwell and timing are always spot-on accurate.
No matter how strong your engine is, you won't get the most out of it without a good spark. The stock, points-based ignition system used technology that dates back a century - to the Kettering system, which was introduced in the 1910 Cadillac. Even though you can adjust breaker points for near-electronic ignition performance, they will burn and wear within a few thousand miles, long before the recommended replacement interval. With points, the timing will drift; power and fuel economy will suffer.
The Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit delivers a strong spark every time and is maintenance-free. You'll notice quicker starts, more top end power and a little gas mileage boost. It's as easy to install as points and condenser!
Advantages of the Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit:
Replaces points and condenser with solid-state electronics
Set it and forget it - Never adjust points and timing again!
Zero maintenance
Delivers far more voltage to the spark plugs than points-based points
Reliable Hall-effect technology
Never gets out of adjustment
Rock-steady reliability
Dwell and timing are always spot-on accurate
Increased gas mileage, fuel economy
Quick starting
Smooth idling
Cleaner emissions
Longer spark plug life
Longer engine life
Cleaner engine oil due to less unburned fuel
Longer interval between oil changes
Easy to install - If you can install points, you can install the Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion
No points to wear, burn, pit or corrode
No condenser needed
Absolutely no points float - zero - even at redline RPM and beyond!
Never worry about drifting dwell or timing again
No rubbing parts - nothing to wear out!
Fits completely under the distributor cap
Stealth modification - maintains stock appearance
Includes everything you need, no external ignition box required.
Works with stock distributor and coil
Encased in high-temp thermoplastic - protected from the elements and oil, grease, dirt, water, etc.
Never bother with points or condenser again!
The best investment you'll ever make for your vehicle
Saves precious ($$$) fuel
Coil with 1.5 Ohms or more internal, primary resistance required. Stock 1.5+ Ω coil or HS17HEC high-energy coil OK.
Requires a 12-volt, negative ground electrical system.

3MAL8U1 - For 8-Cylinder, Non-Vacuum-Advance Mallory Distributor with Points
The 3MAL8U1 ignition kit replaces the entire Mallory 8-cylinder marine
distributor's breaker plate, along with points, condenser, etc. The 3MAL8U1
ignition kit is designed to fit Mallory 8-cylinder, non-vacuum-advance marine
distributors only; it won't fit distributors with electronic ignition already
installed.
The 3MAL8U1 "breaker plate" is the same shape as the original breaker points
plate.
The 3MAL8U1 electronic ignition conversion kit should be used with a coil that
has at least 1.5 Ohms primary resistance, such as the
HS17HEC high-energy coil.
