Distributor; Ford Y Block; Ready-to-Run

from

$774.99
MSD is excited to offer two ready-to-run distributors for two classic Ford engines. These distributors are the answer to weak breaker points or rebuilt aftermarket models.

This improved spark output results in quick starts, snappy throttle response and terrific drivability. The distributors are equipped with a vacuum advance canister for cruising economy. Plus, there is a mechanical advance assembly that is mounted on top of the distributor shaft making it easy to adjust the advance to meet your needs. Another great feature of the ready-to-run distributors is their simple installation. All you need to do is connect three wires and you’ll be cruising.

Product Features:
  • Now includes built-in Rev Limiter
  • No CARB Exemption Order Number
  • Does not require an MSD Ignition Control
  • Built-in module produces a 7.5 amp single spark through high rpm
