Emissions
This part is legal for sale and use on Emissions Controlled Vehicles, in all 50 states, when used in accordance with the manufacturers application guide because it has a California Air Resources Board (CARB) Executive Order (EO) number.
See Emissions DetailsThe Ready-to-Run features MSD's adjustable mechanical advance which allows you to custom tailor an ignition curve to match your engine's needs. There is also a vacuum advance canister to help improve economy. For positive street performance, the Ready-to-Run is the best choice.
A maintenance-free magnetic pick-up accurately triggers the module. The increased output of the amplifier easily outperforms stock ignitions and will smooth out the engine's idle, improve starting and provide a much higher rpm range.
This Black Pro-Billet Ready-to-Run distributor is the perfect upgrade for outdated points distributors or bulky HEIs. Simply install the distributor in the engine, connect three wires, the coil and fire it up!
Includes a separate tach circuit that is ideal to trigger an aftermarket EFI such as an Atomic EFI system.
Features:
- Advance plate and weights are fine blanked from chrome moly steel and QPQ coated for friction reduction
- Simple and clean installation with only three wires to connect
- Easy-to-adjust mechanical advance with supplied springs and stop bushings
