Ford Torino Distributors

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.

The MSD 8421 Adjustable Cap-A-Dapt Distributor Rotor is a premium, precision-engineered performance upgrade designed by MSD Performance to solve rotor phasing problems and deliver perfect ignition synchronization under heavy racing or electronic engine management modifications.

Mallory distributor gears are precision machined from alloy steel in our factory to exact original equipment specs. For use with cast flat tappet hydraulic/mechanical cams and austempered ductile iron roller cams.

This distributor drive gear is designed to match the fit, function and appearance of the original part on specified vehicles, and is engineered for durability and reliable performance.

MSD Bronze Distributor gears are machined from quality AMPCO 45 aluminum bronze containing 5% nickel. This com­bination of bronze and nickel creates high-strength gear teeth that are less prone to wear even with high-volume oil pumps.

The Street Pro-Billet Distributors are the perfect choice for powerful engines that see plenty of street time. This canister provides improved economy and an accurate mechanical advance lets you dial-in an advance curve to match your driving needs. A magnetic pick-up produces accurate trigger signals that remain stable throughout the entire rpm range of your engine and is completely maintenance-free.

The Ready-to-Run  Distributors are a breeze to install. Simply drop it in the engine and connect three wires and you’re ready-to-run across the lake. Supplied with a cap, rotor, gear and Weathertight wiring harness.

Chrome plated steel. Includes hold-down bolt or stud. Holds the distributor in place for accurate timing. Serrated bottom prevents the distributor from turning.

Competition design uses a stud, washer & nut to secure the clamp rather than a bolt. The clamp itself is also chromed.

A distributor’s performance is only as good as its drive gear. MSD Ignition has put a great deal of effort into researching and testing a variety of metallurgical compositions, heat treating and coatings to provide you with a durable, accurate and strong distributor gear. MSD engineers have built test fixtures and spent hundreds of hours testing and evaluating the metallurgy of our gears. The result is a special iron alloy gear that is treated to a low-friction coating process. To you this means long life, an easy break-in period and reliable performance.

Modern vehicles may have 100 or more electrical harness connectors in every operating system of the vehicle. Terminal tension may weaken with time or corrosion may occur within the connector housing making replacement necessary. When replacing any harness-connector assembly approved wire termination methods must be followed to ensure a successful and long-term solution. A failed terminal connection, terminal corrosion or damaged wire will result in an electrical system or operating system fault.
