CDI's for the Early 72~73 BRUT, POLARIS and Chap's now available

4/25/15:  UPDATE: BRUT 440, Polaris 72-TX-500, 72 Starfire 439, 650 & 795 and the 73-Starfire 439/650 & 72~73 Chap / Fuji 650.

With the cold weather & snow hanging on later this year, the CDI sales seemed to go on about a month longer than past years. The good news is, I finally was able to get to a design that we've had around for almost 10 years not.  We did the Polaris Triple CDI from 1979~1990 quite a few years ago.  This was an easy one to develop, since I have that sled/engine combo here.  We tried to develop a CDI for the earlier ROTOR-type stator, used with the old Silver-case CDI, but never had the opportunity to work it out completely.

The models covered with this older CDI are the BRUT 440, Polaris 72-TX-500, 72 Starfire 439, 650 & 795 and the 73-Starfire 439/650, including the 72~73 Chap / Fuji 650.  These are the old ROTOR-type ignitions (not flywheel type).  The older stators had different values in the rotor models, as well as a different timing profile:

STATOR VALUES:
RED to BLACK was 420~480-ohms
RED to WHITE is ~ 22-ohms
Green to BLUE is 20~22-ohms.

Thanks to Ed Shaffer, who provided his early 440 triple for development testing, we completed the design.  It follows the original OEM timing profile, which is basically a static profile, meaning the timing doesn't change very much over the RPM range.  The FIREPLUG CDI advantage is a little more spark energy, much better reliability, our unmatched warranty & it's available! 

We've heard the calls that a replacement CDI is needed.  We are very glad to finally have this FIREPLUG CDI available to help keep these classics running strong!

all chaparral triples had flywheel type, similar to the arctic cat ext 650 triple, the rotor type from polairis and brut have a different crank taper and the rotor wont fit the chaparral crank, have these been tried on the chap triple,s with flywheel type cdi  I have one engine short the box thanks kevin

I have used the hewtec cdi on my chap triples since his box came out,work great and won an eagle in about 05.

Just an update. 

This early 3-cyl Polaris / Brut CDI is not on my webpage yet, but is available.  Have 4~5 out there already and all is well.  In process of re-doing the complete www.cdibox.com website, so not adding it to the list until then.  Hopefully before Thanksgiving the new website will be up and running.  E-mail me direct if interested in this CDI before that..

Thanks...Scott
