Voltage Capacity | High-performance engines (e.g., Ford SBF) | Industry Standard: 50,000V (ASTM D2520) Our Base: 65,000V (AS60950) ▲ Our Advanced: 70,000V (ISO 60950-1) ▲▲ | Base ensures reliable spark for high-compression Ford engines; Advanced supports extreme conditions | Base may exceed needs for standard engines; Advanced requires specialized installation |
Material Composition | Harsh engine environments | Industry: Basic plastic (ASTM D638) Base: Reinforced nylon (ASTM D4004) ▲ Advanced: Glass-filled polymer (ASTM D790) ▲▲ | Advanced resists deformation at 150°C+ (Ford SBF operating temps) | Advanced materials increase cost by ~30% compared to industry standard |
Compatibility | Vintage Ford restorations | Industry: Universal fit (SAE J1939) Base: Ford SBF-specific (SAE J2210) ▲ Advanced: 1963-1964 model-specific ▲▲ | Advanced ensures precise fit for original Ford engine configurations | Limited to specific Ford models; not suitable for modern engines |
Noise Level | Passenger cars requiring quiet operation | Industry: 60 dB(A) Base: 55 dB(A) (ISO 3744) ▲ Advanced: 50 dB(A) (SAE J1114) ▲▲ | Advanced reduces ignition noise to below lawnmower levels (50 dB ≈ quiet library) | Advanced design adds complexity to rotor alignment during installation |
Durability | High-mileage/racing applications | Industry: 500 hours (ASTM D543) Base: 1,000 hours (ISO 11902) ▲ Advanced: 1,500 hours (SAE J2380) ▲▲ | Advanced withstands 2x more thermal cycles than industry standard | Advanced testing extends production lead time by 2 weeks |
Customization | Custom builds/restorations | Industry: Standard colors Base: OEM Ford color ▲ Advanced: Custom color/finish (ISO 2860) ▲▲ | Advanced allows exact color match for vintage Ford aesthetics | Custom options require 14-day lead time vs 3 days for standard colors |
