ACDelco Professional Distributor Cap is a high quality aftermarket replacement component for one or more of the following vehicle systems: cooling, hvac, ignition, starting and charging, body-electrical and lighting, wiper and washer, and/or engine fuel management. This premium aftermarket cap is manufactured to meet or exceed your expectations for fit, form, and function.

Offered in different colors and styles, and complete with solid brass terminals and all installation hardware included, TSP cap and rotor is an easy way to revive or change the look of your distributor.

The distributor cap & rotor are just two pieces 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.

Fel-Pro® gaskets are specifically designed for the repair environment to deliver a reliable seal on even the most troublesome applications. Designed for imperfect sealing surfaces and manufactured with proprietary materials, you can count on Fel-Pro for innovative sealing solutions for the real-world repair environment.

The charging system has been required as long as we have had a need for an electrical system and from research it’s been since the requirement of horns in motor vehicle in the early 1900’s. An alternator is a voltage generator that uses mechanical energy to rotate a set of magnets within a field of windings called a stator. The alternating current (AC) voltage created by the spinning magnetic field is converted into a usable direct current (DC) voltage with a rectifier and then regulated by a voltage regulator so that the voltage level in the electrical system stays within a specific operating range. The alternator provides all the voltage needed to operate a vehicle, the battery is only used as a reserve for heavier load conditions, as a voltage source for the engine starting system, and to supply a small amount of voltage to the electromagnets in the alternator which boosts the magnetic field in the alternator and increases voltage output.

TSP Pro Series Pro Billet Distributor is for the racer who needs added spark and precision for their high performance power plant. It features a high quality, fully adjustable mechanical advance and an accurate magnetic pickup trigger. The CNC-machined aluminum body and hardened steel shaft, guided by a sealed ball bearing on top and a sintered steel bushing on the bottom, ensure stability up to 10,000 RPM. The dielectric cap features bolt-down and twist-lock capabilities. It has solid brass terminals and comes with a color-matched wire retainer.

A legend returns – the tried and true Mallory Unilite Distributor line is back! The easy three wire hookup of the Unilite makes running a stock coil, a Mallory performance coil and even a Mallory HyFire CD ignition a snap. Supplied with a quality cap and rotor, the Mallory Unilite also provides a fully adjustable mechanical advance to dial in the perfect timing curve for a multitude of engine combinations. The Unilite features a compact housing that lends itself well to applications where space is a premium due to tight firewall clearance or blower applications.
