Electronic ignition upgrade kit for your 45D distributor (with red fixed points) as found in many Mini & Mini Coopers. This kit includes a Pertronix Ignitor module that replaces the stock mechanical points, a new matching Pertronix 3ohm coil (for pre-ballasted systems) and a set of high performance 8mm spark plug wires from Ultrik.

"Fixed Point" electronic ignition conversion. The two best features of the new Pertronix Ignitor electronic ignition conversion kit are the low price and the fact that it fits entirely inside your stock distributor cap! (Negative ground only!) All previous ignition kits utilized an external black box, not the sort of thing you want under the hood of your stock-looking engine compartment! And, like the more expensive electronic ignition kits, once you install the magnetic trigger and sensor, you will never have to change points again! Also, available for early, 23/25D Negative Ground (LU142) or early 23/25D Positive Ground (LU142/POS) distributors.

While it's the perfect coil to go with the PerTronix Ignitor breakerless ignition, the new 40,000 volt Flame-Thrower can benefit virtually any distributor type induction system. For one thing, the higher voltage allows larger spark plug gaps for added power, smoother response and better fuel economy.
3.0 ohm for unballasted systems.
Choose from chrome (40501)or OEM black (40511), they're oil filled for better cooling and voltage insulation; or get the epoxy version (40611) of the Flame-Thrower when extreme vibration

Question:
I have a 1978 Mini 1000, single carb. I wish to upgrade to electronic ignition. which kit is right for my Mini? MMKT0710? or MMKT0711?
Answer:
Likely the MMKT0711. You'll need to find out which distributor you have. The number should be on the side. It should say Lucas 45D. But if the engine was replaced at any point with a later type it could be a 59D or something else.
