Carquest Premium distributors are built to meet or exceed the original equipment (OE) specifications for each application. Our distributors are built by a manufacturer that meets IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. Each distributor is supplied with the cap, rotor and any seals needed for installation. Carquest Premium distributors are 100% new and undergo extensive validation testing to ensure long-lasting ignition performance and reliability.

Product Features:

• Designed to meet or exceed OE specifications for fit, form and function
• 100% new unit with no core charges
• Precision machined shafts result in high speed accuracy and help prevent bearing failures
• Every distributor is tested to ensure reliable and long-lasting performance
• O-rings or gaskets included where applicable
• Precision Engineered ignition modules and plugs ensure proper performance plus precise connection.

Sharing the CNC machining techniques with the rest of the MSD distributor line, the Oldsmobile housing is machined from high quality 6061-T6 aluminum. Adding to this?strength are two sealed ball bearings that guide the 0.500 In. shaft accurately through 10,000 RPM. Tig welded on top of the polished steel shaft is MSD’s adjustable mechanical advance assembly. To accurately trigger the ignition, a high-output magnetic pick-up is bolted to the base. This trigger pick-up produces a precise trigger signal. An MSD red cap with brass terminals and race rotor are supplied.

Product Features:

• CNC Machined Billet Alum. Housing and Billet Alum. Base
• Will not accept a vacuum advance canister
• Must Be Used w/An MSD Ignition Control
• Supplied w/HEI style distributor cap/rotor (accepts Cap-A-Dapts)
• Nylon pads ensure smooth operation of the advance weights
• Advance weight pins are staked and tig welded to the plate
• Mech. advance assem. can be locked out for crank trigger systems
• Advance plate and weights are fine blanked from chrome moly steel

ELECTRONICS

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:

• Plug n’ Play billet distributors are designed for maximum ignition performance at a price you can afford
• Our Billet I3 distributors ship with Ignitor III multi-spark rev limiting modules.
• Precision CNC machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum housings are lightweight yet offer maximum strength.
• 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.
• Adjustable mechanical advance with proprietary limiting function permits multiple settings. Distributors are factory set with a performance advance curve and are provided with additional springs for custom advance.
