Sports Ignition Coil (Resistor Type) Holden / Ford - C80R

If your classic Holden or Ford deserves a bit more spark in its step, the Ignition Coil delivers a serious upgrade over tired factory units. Designed as a high-output replacement for the iconic Bosch GT40R style coil, it’s ideally suited to classic Australian Holden and Ford 12V negative-ground vehicles, making it a popular choice for restorations and performance builds alike. As a resistor-type coil, engineered to run at a reduced operating voltage during normal driving, helping prevent premature points wear. During engine cranking, it receives a full 12-volt boost for improved cold starting performance — giving you the best of both worlds: protection and performance.

Key Features

• Higher Spark Voltage Output: Produces significantly more spark energy than many OE-style coils, supporting improved combustion efficiency, high-revving applications, modified camshaft setups and performance tuning upgrades.
• Stronger & More Consistent Spark: Contributes to easier starting, smoother idle, improved throttle response, and reduced misfire under load.
• Female (Socket-Style) High-Tension Terminal: Requires a coil lead that pushes directly into the top of the coil for secure connection.
• Traditional Canister Shape & Finish: Classic cylindrical “bottle” design for an authentic engine bay appearance, also finished in a bold red housing for a period-correct performance look.

Model Suitability

• Holden EH, HD, HR, HK, HT, HG, HQ, HJ, HX, HZ - 6-cylinder & V8
• Ford XR, XT, XW, XY, XA, XB, XC Falcon - 6-cylinder & V8
• Chrysler Valiant (1960s to 70s)

For those chasing stronger spark energy and sharper engine response, the Ignition Coil – 12V Sports Resistor To Suit Classic Holden & Ford Models is a proven way to bring dependable, high-performance ignition power to your vintage ride.
