MSD’s Ready-to-Run Ford distributors are the perfect upgrade for bulky duration systems or ancient breaker point models. These distributors come complete and Ready-to-Run. All you need to do is drop it in the engine, connect three wires and fire the engine.

Different advance springs and stop bushings are supplied so you can easily tune a curve to match your needs.
