$449.99
When you start making serious power with your EFI Ford, the stock distributor shaft is one of the weak links of the engine. These Pro-Billet models answer the need for an affordable replacement in a strong and great looking package. Each distributor starts as a solid billet that is secured into a state of the art computer numerical control (CNC) machine where it is transformed into a precision housing. Inside each housing there is a sealed ball bearing at the top of the shaft. This design is responsible for accurately guiding the oversized polished steel shaft throughout the entire RPM range of your engine. The shaft is also QPQ-coated for friction reduction and corrosion resistance. The Pro-Billet distributors use a stock-style trigger pick-up to accept factory connectors. For installation, you simply remove the stock distributor and bolt the Pro-Billet MSD in place!

Product Features:
  • Drop in billet replacement for late model Ford TFI 5.8L dist.
  • Supplied w/steel gear to work w/factory roller camshafts
  • Factory style ignition module connector accepts factory wiring
  • CNC machined billet aluminum housing and billet aluminum base
  • QPQ coated polished steel shaft; guided by sealed ball bearings
  • Supplied w/Late Model Distributor Cap And Rotor
  • Legal to install in all 50 states

Proform – Ford HEI Distributor, Red Cap, For Ford 289-302 V8 Engines (Part No.66969R)

Ford HEI Distributor, Red Cap, For Ford 289-302 V8 Engines

from

$228.99
Fits Ford 289 – 302 (5.0). Utilizing the durable and dependable High Energy Ignition (HEI) system pioneered by GM, these distributors avoid the unsightly wiring of stock Ford electronic ignition systems by installing this one-piece distributor with an internally positioned coil and module. Easy to install: just connect one 12-volt hot wire to the distributor (has optional tach hook-up). These units offer calibrated advance curves that are optimized for maximum combustion efficiency and for the elimination of detonation damage and throttle ping. Assembled from precision-madeparts for advance curve smoothness. Offers longer term durability and a higher voltage spark that permits a bigger spark plug gap, resulting in more power and reduced plug fouling. Each unit includes a high-power coil, a premium hi-dielectric cap with brass terminals, and a low-saturation ignition module. By eliminating the stock-Ford ballast resistor, more ignition voltage results in improved spark. Incorporates easily found High Energy Ignition (HEI) replacement parts. Assembled with upper and lower bushings (stock Ford distributors have only a single bushing). Technical Note: Gear not compatible with roller cams. If using roller cams, please contact the cam manufacturer for proper gear selection.

Product Features:
  • Street/Strip Version
  • Built-In Coil with Magnetic Trigger
  • Features Red Cap
  • Fits Ford 289-302 5.0 Engines
  • Comes with An Iron Gear and with Not Work with Factory Roller Cams
