![]() ![]() After, these system could be bought as an over the counter part from your local GM dealership. Transistorized Ignitions (TI) also known as Delcotron Transistor Control Magnetic Pulse Ignition Systems were available from the factory under RPO K66 in 1964-1971 both small and big blocks. Be safe, not sorry with the correct reproduction wiring harness in your restored Corvette. Hand-assembled in the USA, all wiring harnesses are wrapped with the factory correct non-adhesive or cloth woven tapes, where applicable, to assure a 100% original appearance. The terminals are dip soldered, where applicable, to limit resistance voltage loss. All the connectors and terminals are identical to the originals. Each harness is made with all the wires having the correct gauge and each wire is correctly color coded to match the factory wiring diagram. Eckler's offers the very best in reproduction harnesses for your Corvette. For safety and functionality, replacing your old wiring harness with a new reproduction harness is a very smart investment. Years-old wiring that has been spliced, modified, is dry-rotted or in generally poor condition could lead to an untimely breakdown or much worse, a disastrous fire. To identify if you have a TI system in your car, you will have a “finned” amplifier box and bracket, magnetic pulse distributor and special wiring harness.įor Corvette restorers one of the most important safety features your car needs is a wiring system that is in good working order. The problem became critical when used on endurance type events such as NASCAR or Trans Am racing, TI systems over came both problems creating a reliable ignition system up to 10,000 RPM or more. Replacing the factory points, high tension points often wore the rubbing guide block at a faster rate resulting in increase dwell and retarded spark. ![]() Points systems at higher RPM can bounce unless replaced with high tension point set limiting the rev capability of the motor. ![]() TI systems work by over coming the common problems with point’s style ignition systems at high RPM. Later to be replaced with the HEI optional distributors in 1975 these transistorized ignition systems were used as the standard duty high performance Chevrolet ignition systems. These special transistor controlled ignition systems where developed for high performance and racing use to replace the traditional point-fired ignition system that came standard on most vehicles.
