MSD condenses their extensive high-performance distributor expertise into a specially designed compact housing, aiming to be less intrusive for Ford engines. The unique cap and housing have a 5/8" smaller diameter than standard Ford distributors, providing additional space in front of the engine. The new MSD cap boasts spark plug-style terminals and securely screws down to the housing.
This distributor relies on MSD's race-proven magnetic pickup and precision reluctor to deliver precise trigger signals to the MSD Ignition during high rpm. The reluctor assembly, turned by a hardened steel shaft, is supported by a sealed ball bearing, ensuring stability and endurance at high rpm.
At the top of this shaft sits a fully adjustable mechanical advance assembly. The rate at which the chromoly assembly advances the timing can be easily controlled by adjusting the supplied advance springs and stop bushing for total advance.
