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 DetailsThis strong, billet aluminum distributor is set up for engines that run locked-out timing or an MSD Timing Computer. With no advance assembly, the rotor plate is welded directly to the oversized shaft. A sealed ball bearing guides the top of the shaft while an extra long sintered bushing stabilizes the lower portion.
Trigger signals are produced via a high-output magnetic pick-up. This pickup is extremely accurate and never requires adjustment. Since this distributor is designed primarily for race engines, an oversized (+.006") bronze gear is installed along with an adjustable slip collar for modified blocks, heads or intake manifolds.
Features:
- Designed primarily for race applications with no mechanical advance
- Will not accept a vacuum advance canister
- Must be used with an MSD 6, 7, 8, or 10 Series Ignition
- Supplied with an HEI style distributor cap and rotor (accepts Cap-A-Dapts)
- Supplied with a 0.006” oversized bronze gear installed
- O-ring seals can be added to modified blocks to improve oil pressure control
- Special oil tract improves lubrication to the distributor and cam gear
- Polished steel shaft is QPQ coated and guided by a sealed ball bearing
- Adjustable slip collar mounting flange for engines with modified deck heights
- Maintenance-free magnetic pickup and precision reluctor create stable trigger signals throughout the rpm range
- CNC machined billet aluminum housing and billet aluminum base
