MSD Ignition – Distributor; Buick 455 V8; Ready-to-Run (Part No.8552)

Distributor; Buick 455 V8; Ready-to-Run

from

$604.99
If you’re looking for a performance distributor for your Buick or Nailhead your search is over! MSD’s Ready-to-Run distributor 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. Not only do you get the benefits of electronic triggering, but your engine will awaken with the powerful sparks from the ignition module. This module delivers up to 7.5 A to the coil creating a stout inductive spark. This improves combustion of the fuel mixture resulting in quick starts, a smooth idle and great performance! Another advantage of an MSD distributor is the accurate and adjustable mechanical advance assembly. The advance curve is easy to adjust with different advance springs and stop bushings which are included. To top it off there is a vacuum advance canister and MSD’s strong cap and wire retainer.

Product Features:
  • Simple and clean three wire installation
  • CARB E.O. Approved
  • Does not require an MSD Ignition Control
  • Supplied w/HEI style distributor cap/rotor (accepts Cap-A-Dapts)

MSD Ignition – Distributor; Billet GM HEI (Part No.8365)

Distributor; Billet GM HEI

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.

Product Features:
  • Complete performance HEI distributor upgrade for Chevy V8 engines
  • Supplied w/Brass Terminal Distributor Cap And Rotor
  • Full Spark Energy Output To 9000 Rpm
