Essential 1954 Buick Century Performance Distributors
MSD Ignition – Distributor; Buick Nailhead; Ready-to-Run (Part No.8524)
from
$702.99
The Buick Nailhead is one of the most sought after nostalgic engines for rods and is still providing the smooth power to plenty of Buick’s. Nailhead fans can finally get a state-of-the-art distributor to provide the fire! MSD’s Nailhead distributor is a ready to run unit which incorporates a magnetic pickup that never wears out. Plus, the distributor has a built in ignition module so there is no need to mount an external MSD Ignition control. The module delivers up to 7.5 A to the coil creating a stout inductive spark. Not only do you get the benefits of electronic triggering, but your engine will awaken with powerful sparks from the ignition module. This improves combustion of the fuel mixture resulting in quick starts, a smooth idle and great performance.

MSD Ignition – Distributor; Billet GM HEI (Part No.8365)
from
$594.99
The Chevrolet HEI distributor is a favorite for muscle cars, street rods and even circle track racers. The integrated coil keeps under mount wiring clean, and for race cars, the idea of running one wire to the distributor keeps things simple. However, when it comes to performance, the stock HEI falls short. MSD answers the need for a strong, accurate and high performance HEI with our Pro-Billet HEI. The distributor is supplied with our digital HEI module and coil so there is plenty of spark energy combined with improved dwell and timing control. Tig welded on top of the distributor shaft is MSD’s adjustable centrifugal advance assembly. Three sets of springs and four stop bushings let you dial in up to 24 different timing curves to match your driving needs. Plus, there’s a vacuum advance for those concerned with economy. All of this is assembled around a precision and great looking CNC machined housing.

This combination keeps the shaft steady creating accurate spark delivery at any RPM. The street Pro-Billet relies on a magnetic pick-up to trigger the MSD Ignition control which delivers the powerful sparks to the coil. This pick-up is extremely accurate and never needs adjusting.
