PROMASTER®IGNITION COILS AND

VOLTMASTER®MARK II IGNITION COILS

PART NOS. 28675, 28720, 29440 AND 29625

GENERAL INFORMATION

Check the ignition coil application to be sure it is being used in the proper application for optimum performance.

Spark Plug Wires and Coil Wire:

To prevent false triggering and possibility of premature ignition failures, use suppression type spark plug wire.

PROMASTER®Ignition Coils:

We recommend spiral core ignition wire, such as Mallory PRO SIDEWINDER

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire or carbon core ignition

wire, such as Mallory PRO WIRE

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire or

Mallory SPRINT WIRE

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire.

VOLTMASTER®Mark II Ignition Coils:

We recommend carbon core ignition wire, such as Mallory PRO WIRE

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire or Mallory SPRINT WIRE®8MM Suppression Ignition Wire.

If your coil wire will not reach between the distributor cap and the ignition coil, we suggest using one of the Mallory Spark Plug Wire Replacement Kits. The Mallory Spark Plug Wire Replacement Kit is a 4 ft. length of 8mm Silicone Jacketed Suppression Wire assembled with a straight spark plug boot and terminal on one end, and a 90° spark plug boot and terminal on one end. Supplied with male (HEI), and female socket type distributor boots and terminals that make these kits ideal for remote mounting an ignition coil.

Mallory Spark Plug Wire Replacement Kits:

• Part No. 919, PRO SIDEWINDER®8MM Suppression Ignition Wire (red)

• Part No. 722, PRO WIRE

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire (black)

• Part No. 706, SPRINT WIRE

8MM Suppression Ignition Wire (yellow)

Spark Plug Gaps:

For street applications, use your engine manufacturer’s specifications. For racing applications, start with your engine manufacturer’s specifications, then experiment with and closely monitor various gaps to achieve maximum performance.

MOUNTING PROCEDURE

Ignition coils should be mounted on a flat surface as close as possible to the distributor and away from extreme heat from engine components. DO NOT mount ignition coils to the engine.

PROMASTER®Ignition Coils:

Step 1

PROMASTER®Ignition Coils may be mounted at any angle. Find a suitable flat surface to mount the ignition coil.

Step 2

Center punch the mounting pattern using the ignition coil bracket as a template to mark locations for drilling holes. Drill holes using a 9/64" drill bit.

Step 3

Mount the ignition coil bracket using three #10 x 3/4" screws.

Step 4

Slide the ignition coil into the ignition coil bracket. Mount the ignition coil in the ignition coil bracket with the #10 x 1" screw.

VOLTMASTER®Mark II Ignition Coils:

Step 1

VOLTMASTER®Mark II Ignition Coils must be mounted upright with the high voltage terminal facing down or sideways, never upward. Find a suitable flat surface to mount the ignition coil.

Step 2

Find suitable nuts and bolts or screws to hold the ignition coil bracket to the flat surface. Center punch the mounting pattern using the ignition coil bracket as a template to mark locations for drilling holes. Drill clearance holes.

Step 3

Mount the ignition coil and bracket.

COIL WIRE INSTALLATION

PROMASTER®Ignition Coils:

Step 1

Strip 5/8" of insulation from the coil wire.

Step 2

Fold the core over the outside of the coil wire.

Step 3

Put the coil wire terminal on the end of the coil wire and crimp the connection.

Step 4

Slide the coil wire into the coil wire boot.

Step 5

Install the coil wire on the high voltage terminal. See Figure 1A.

VOLTMASTER®Mark II Ignition Coils:

Step 1

Slide the coil wire through the black plastic cover and rubber gasket.

Step 2

Push the coil wire firmly into the high voltage terminal.

Step 3

Insert screws through the black plastic cover and rubber gasket. Tighten screws until the rubber gasket starts to squeeze out around the edge of the black plastic cover. See Figure 1B.
