Warranty Details (1 Year Warranty)
Beneath the bolt down cap and MSD race rotor you'll find MSD's accurate mechanical advance assembly. Different advance springs and stop bushings are supplied so you can easily tune a curve to match your needs. Plus, there is a vacuum advance canister to increase economy on long drives. For protection, there is also an easy-to-set rev limiter.
