1976 GMC C35 Ignition Electronic Parts

“The MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger uses four magnets secured in the aluminum trigger wheel that pass by a stationary non-magnetic pick-up to trigger the ignition. This “”flying magnet”” design produces accurate trigger signals and the non-magnetic pick-up cannot be falsely triggered. Each Flying Magnet Crank Trigger includes a two-piece mounting bracket for the non-magnetic pick-up that in most cases will work on either the passenger side or driver’s side of the engine (the SB Chrysler and SB Ford brackets mount on only one side). The CNC-machined aluminum bracket securely holds the pick-up in place and is slotted to provide a wide range of timing adjustments. Spacers are included so you can mount the bracket on engines with standard motor mounts or engines with a .25″” motor plate. These systems will trigger MSD 6, 7, and 8 Series Ignitions and all MSD Timing Accessories.”

For a long time, racers have known that one of the best things to do to an engine to improve performance is to stabilize the ignition timing. The MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger system does exactly that by using four magnets embedded in an aluminum wheel. Although similar in appearance to other crank triggers, the MSD Flying Magnet design works on a different principle. Most crank triggers have a wheel, with steel studs sticking out, bolted to the harmonic balancer. As the crankshaft turns, the studs pass by a stationary magnetic pick-up, triggering the ignition. This pick-up can be triggered by other bolts, debris, or even vibrations which will cause a loss of power or engine damage.

The distributor is just one piece of this type of ignition system which is typically driven by the engine’s camshaft. The distributor is the device that delivers the ignition spark to the spark plugs at a precise time, and spark timing is critical. Any wear or component out of place in this type of system will result in failure. Within the distributor and mounted to it are many individual pieces which allow the distributor and system to be maintained and repaired to keep it in top working order.

An ACDelco Professional, premium aftermarket Ignition Control Module is a high quality replacement for many vehicles on the road today. It increases voltage in order for the spark plugs to ignite the air/fuel mixture as the starting and charging system starts the engine, maintains the battery’s charge, and provides power to the electrical accessories while the engine is running. An ACDelco Professional Ignition Control Module features electronically welded lead connections to help reduce heat stress, failure, or cold joints. This ignition control module has been laser trimmed to provide precise values and reduce deterioration and damage. It includes a copper slug heat sink to help dissipate heat and create a more stable environment and also features a large bus bar for added support and conductivity to address the installation and operating forces that stress terminal tabs. This premium aftermarket replacement ignition control module is manufactured to meet your expectations for fit, form, and function.

This high performance HEI module provides your plugs with more spark over the stock module. The solid state electronics provide high coil out put and superior reliability. The Dwell control circuit ensures, long consistent coil charging. The current control circuit protects against coil over heating. This module fits most GM HEI for V8 engines with the 4 pin module 1974 thru 1985.

CARQUEST Ignition Modules are built by an ignition systems manufacturer with expertise in the entire vehicle spark system.

The MSD 8611 Flying Magnet Crank Trigger Wheel is a professional-grade, high-precision replacement ignition component engineered by MSD Performance to deliver rock-solid timing accuracy under the most grueling racing conditions.
