Distributor; Chrysler 331; Ready-to-Run

from

The Pro billet Early Hemi Ready-to-Run distributor earns its name with simple wiring. One wire to 12 V, one to coil negative and another to ground. That’s it! A matching harness with a 3-pin Weathertight connector is supplied. 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.
