Our line of Billet Plug n¿ Play Distributors are based on a precision CNC-machined housing with an upper ball bearing to support the steel distributor shaft accurately from idle to redline rpm. These distributors feature our maintenance-free Ignitor II or III electronic ignition module to produce a strong spark and steady ignition timing.

Product Features:

• Precision CNC machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum housings are lightweight yet offer maximum strength.
• Our Billet distributors ship with Ignitor II modules factory installed.
• Each billet distributor is hand polished and buffed to a high luster.
• Tempered distributor shaft has low torsion displacement for accurate timing and extended operational life.
• Upper ball bearing and extra long oil impregnated bronze lower bushing work together to reduce friction and provide shaft and advance mechanism stability reducing high RPM vibration.

Finally an answer for your amps worn out breaker points distributor! This Ready-to-Run Pro-Billet distributor has a built-in inductive module that produces up to 7.5 A to create a high voltage spark at the plug. This spark improves combustion of the fuel mixture resulting in quick starts, a smooth idle and great performance. Since this distributor has its own ignitions module there is no need to run an MSD Ignition control. Installation of the distributor is simple with only three wires to connect with the supplied Weathertight harness. Under the MSD cap is a mechanical advance that is supplied with different advance springs and stop bushings, giving you 24 curves to choose from. the ready to run AMC distributor also has a vacuum advance canister and is supplied with everything you need for installation.

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)
• QPQ coated polished steel shaft; guided by sealed ball bearings
• Maintenance-free magnetic pickup and precision reluctor
• Creates stable trigger signals throughout the rpm range
• Vacuum advance canister for improved economy (can be locked out)
• Easy-to-adjust mech. advance w/supplied springs and stop bushings
• CNC machined billet aluminum housing and billet aluminum base
• Built-in module produces a 7.5 amp single spark through high rpm
• Includes built-in Rev Limiter

There is a big following of AMC enthusiasts that are cruising a 401 equipped Javelin or trail blazing in a rock crawling Jeep with an inline 6-cylinder! MSD offers two Pro-Billet distributors to deliver accurate trigger signals and are maintenance-free! Under the brass terminal cap of each distributor is MSD’s race proven magnetic pick-up. This pick-up never requires adjustment and simply plugs right into an MSD Ignition control. Just above it and under our strong race rotor is an adjustable mechanical advance assembly. The chro-moly weights of this assembly slide on nylon bushings producing smooth movement of the timing. You can easily adjust the curve to match your engine’s requirements with the supplied springs and stop bushings. Each precision CNC-machined billet aluminum housing features a sealed ball-bearing and long sintered bushing for stability at any RPM and increased endurance. An oversized steel shaft receives a QPQ coating to reduce friction and prevent corrosion.
